Even if the world comes to hate meYoung Skinny
Young Skinny is a four-piece rock band active since 2020.
Their signature sound embodies classic Japanese rock, and their heartfelt melodies and lyrics consistently resonate with young listeners.
Among their songs, the one I especially recommend to teenage boys for scoring high is “Even If the World Comes to Hate Me.” Despite its bright tone, it doesn’t simply ramp up in intensity; in fact, the key drops a step when the chorus hits.
Even if you can’t sing very high, it’s still very manageable, so consider adding it to your repertoire.
Life is in a rush.Namu Abeta-butsu
Nam Amida Butsu are a three-piece rock band known as an “Aloha rock” act.
Despite the self-proclaimed Aloha influence, that element isn’t especially strong; at their core they’re more like catchy Japanese rock, and they’ve released many easy-to-listen-to tracks.
Among their songs, the one I especially recommend is “Namu ABEda Butsu.” The vocals have a bit of drive, but the range isn’t very wide and it sits mostly in the mid register, making it very easy to sing.
Definitely consider adding it to your repertoire.
