Heaven and HellUNISON SQUARE GARDEN
In August 2014, UNISON SQUARE GARDEN released a high-energy, fast-paced track.
Featured on the album “Catcher In The Spy,” the song is highly regarded as a piece that distills the band’s appeal.
Kosuke Saito’s clear, transparent vocals pair perfectly with the sharp, edgy band ensemble, giving the song a universal quality that resonates with all kinds of listeners.
The lyrics include the phrase “count heaven and hell,” which seems to convey the importance of judging and accepting life’s good and bad, success and failure, for yourself.
The song is also a live favorite, often prompting massive sing-alongs and securing its status as one of the band’s signature tracks.
It’s popular at karaoke as well, covering a wide vocal range and suiting many singers.
Highly recommended for anyone seeking excitement and fun in their daily life.
A thoroughly nocturnal night-after-night driveUNISON SQUARE GARDEN
A track from their fourth year after debut, characterized by a gritty, hard-rock sound.
More recent fans might find it a bit unfamiliar, but its edgy melody and vocals make it a very cool song.
It’s recommended for hardcore fans too, and knowing it gives you that connoisseur vibe.
Iron EmperorUnlucky Morpheus
Unlucky Morpheus is a seven-member metal band that channels influences from video game music and anime songs into a virtuoso, melodic metal sound.
“Tekko” from their EP Taki Yasha Hime creates a striking impact through the contrast between its massive band sound and powerful vocals.
The aggressive ensemble—fusing Japanese melodies and instruments—delivers a shock that sets it apart from classic metal tracks.
With its grand arrangement that draws you into its world, it’s a number that deserves to be heard by listeners beyond just metal fans.
HammerstormVell
This is a feverish Vocaloid track I highly recommend when you want to boost your mood! It’s by the Vocaloid producer Vell, also known for the hit “Gibyurita,” and it was released in December 2023.
The funky, rock-infused sound is irresistibly upbeat.
The arrangement showcases great taste, with a dancey vibe in the chorus and a surprise shift into a Japanese-style section midway through.
If you’ve been feeling a bit low lately, let this song give you a burst of energy!
Take-offViViD
This is the indie debut single by ViViD, a five-member visual kei rock band that disbanded in 2015.
Released as a made-to-order limited edition, the track is packed with highlights—from its catchy melody and driving pace to its numerous dynamic shifts.
The A section features a spacious, expansive guitar sound with delay; the B section brings a heavy rhythm evocative of alternative rock; and the chorus delivers a fast-paced rock feel driven by off-beat rhythms.
As a debut single, it showcases the broad musical range of the band.
Take It Easy feat. Tsubaki (Prod. GeG)WILYWNKA
A track featuring WILYWNKA, a rapper born in Osaka in 1997, and Tsubaki, a rapper from Okinawa.
With urban guitar and a languid rhythm that somehow makes you want to move, it’s the perfect song for guys slogging through crappy everyday lives.
The two of them deliver a barrage of verses that are gritty, cool, and strikingly memorable.
It’s exactly like the carefree fun of rappers men look up to—ideal for a laid-back, hot summer.
TerminerWejdene
Terminer, the latest track by rising French R&B star Wejdene, is a moving song centered on heartbreak and self-renewal.
Released on January 26, 2024, it vividly portrays the emotional turbulence that follows betrayal and disappointment.
Wejdene’s crystalline vocals blend seamlessly with the supple beat, gripping the listener from start to finish.
Since her 2020 smash hit Anissa, she has enjoyed immense popularity—especially among teens—but this release presents a more mature artistic side.
It’s a perfect song for anyone trying to recover from a breakup or those who admire a strong female figure.
