You just don't get it.monet
This work stands out for its emotional lyrics and languid rock sound.
It’s a track by the music unit monet, released in June 2025.
The inextricably tangled feelings are conveyed through a wavering guitar sound and Chifuyu Hanakuma’s languorous vocals.
That sonic texture pairs perfectly with lyrics distilled from bitterness toward an ex and lingering attachment.
When you’re weighed down by frustration or listening on a sentimental night, you’ll find yourself drawn deeply into its world.
selfish; self-centered; willfulRuka Mochizuki
This is a song by Ruka Mochizuki, with lyrics and composition by Tetsuya Komuro, bringing a fresh breeze to the enka world.
The bittersweet feelings toward a loved one are portrayed like waves that ebb and flow.
The choice of indirect wording—such as the scene of jumping onto the last train—ironically serves to highlight the protagonist’s sense of helplessness.
Many listeners may find their hearts captured at first listen by this bold, innovative approach.
Not only longtime enka fans, but even those who don’t usually listen to enka, are sure to be drawn into this new sound!

This is a song composed by Shinichi Mori himself, steeped in the fervent spirit of Showa-era enka.
Released in May 1993 as one of the tracks on a double A-side single, it was also included that July on the album “Shinichi Mori Composition Anthology,” a collection of his own compositions.
It depicts the pure love of a protagonist who throws themselves into a romance so intense it makes them waver between life and death.
The inescapable, tragic end of that love is conveyed through Mori’s husky, deeply expressive voice, piercing the listener’s heart.
The anguish of surrendering to a passion that blazes on, even while knowing it’s hopeless—many may find themselves empathizing with that inner conflict.

I am a heretic.szri
Have you ever been tormented by loneliness, thinking, “I’m different from everyone else—maybe there’s something wrong with me”? Szri’s work I Am a Heretic powerfully gives voice to that piercing pain.
Heavy electro sounds intertwine with razor-sharp guitar, and the inhuman vocals of UTAU Adachi Rei heighten the sense of isolation, creating a truly one-of-a-kind world.
Released in July 2025 and included on the compilation album Adachi Adapter, it hits perfectly on nights when you can’t fit in and end up blaming yourself, matching those sharp-edged emotions to a tee.
What is justice?BAND-MAID
A BAND-MAID track that shakes the listener’s heart with its hard-hitting sound.

The soaring high-tone vocals are also captivating, embodying the universal theme woven into the lyrics: “What is true justice?” It’s the perfect song for moments when you feel uncertain about the path you believe in or need the courage to face hardship.
