A small flameSCANDAL
The title can be interpreted in various ways.
One is that the countless stars you see when you look up at the night sky are metaphorically compared to small flames.
Alternatively, from the perspective of this vast world, you and I are tiny.
So let’s not sweat the small stuff and just live—this is a ballad with a grand sense of scale that can be understood in that way.
Chain ReactionSHADOWS
Leading the melodic hardcore scene, SHADOWS quickly drew attention after forming in 2016.
A new legend began with three former members of FACT—Hiro, Kazuki, and Takahiro—and they’ve been captivating fans with a sound where melody and hardcore punk intertwine to perfection.
Their debut EP, Extrance, created a buzz the moment it was released, landing them spots at major festivals across Japan.
While they’re known for growls and powerful shouts, their melodic beauty is just as essential.
That musical identity shines through on the 2017 single Chain Reaction and the album illuminate, and their fiery performances on the nationwide OPERATION ATTIC TOUR have become the stuff of legend.
Channeling a sound that feels both nostalgically ’90s and strikingly fresh, SHADOWS truly carry the torch of melodic hardcore.
Why not experience their electrifying stage at the next show? They’re sure to win your heart.
ChainedSHE’S
The song chosen as the theme for the film “And, the Baton Was Passed,” starring Mei Nagano, Kei Tanaka, and Satomi Ishihara, is “Chained” by the four-piece piano rock band SHE’S.
When the producers put out a call for theme songs, they received applications from around 200 artists, and “Chained” was selected from among them.
It’s a grand piano ballad, a powerful love song with lyrics that declare there’s nothing to fear if we can meet again.
Be sure to listen to “Chained,” which connects perfectly with the piano that also appears in the film!
Slave to chocolateSKE48
Speaking of February, many people probably feel like listening to songs that get them excited for Valentine’s Day.
SKE48’s 11th single, “Choco no Dorei,” released in 2013 with Jurina Matsui as the center, is a Valentine’s song that makes you feel cute and happy.
It’s a track that straightforwardly sings about a boy’s feelings as he gets tossed around by Valentine’s Day and chocolate—he wants chocolate on Valentine’s Day, and he wants to know how the girl he likes feels.

Chit-Chit-ChatSKY-HI
When summer comes, you start craving stylish, refreshing tunes, don’t you? If you’re looking for songs like that, I recommend SKY-HI’s “Chit-Chit-Chat.” The track is built on a groove influenced by Black music like funk and R&B, and just listening to it will get you moving.
It’s perfect for a hot summer night and will put you in an amazing mood.
cherrySOTTE BOSSE
“Cherry” is a big hit by Spitz.
SOTTE BOSSE performs it with a reggae rhythm.
It’s a refreshing arrangement that makes you want to listen to it at the beach in summer.
The vocalist’s crystal-clear voice paired with the reggae groove—“Cherry” is a wonderful track you’ll want to play again and again.
Cherry MySTEREOPONY
Set to a standard rock style with a very simple arrangement.
The girl the protagonist likes doesn’t seem to give him the time of day.
It’s a bittersweet unrequited-love song that overlays the falling cherry blossoms with the protagonist’s feelings.
It seems to depict a scene of meeting a former classmate after graduating from school, but that, too, is portrayed subtly—AIMI’s songwriting is truly impressive.
I wish it had gained a bit more mainstream recognition.
