MachineYeah Yeah Yeahs

In the rock scene of the 2000s, New York served as a hub for musical trends, radiating an excitement that evoked the atmosphere of the 1970s.

Emerging from that scene, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs—fronted by the sole female member, Karen O—were a pivotal band that dominated indie rock in the 2000s.

Preceding their acclaimed 2003 album Fever to Tell, this track, released as an EP in November 2002, distills their raw, early impulses.

The piece’s racing, drone-like guitar noise and tight rhythm generate a mechanical yet sensual tension.

Coupled with Karen O’s provocative vocals, the band’s dangerous allure explodes to full effect.

Peaking at No.

Hearing that sophisticated sound that sparkles like a city nightscape, many of you will probably feel you’ve heard it somewhere before.

It’s a masterpiece by keyboardist Bob James, known as the godfather of smooth jazz, and saxophonist David Sanborn, whose singing tone transcends genres! The piece was composed by the virtuoso Marcus Miller, and it’s a luxurious track where an Afro-Cuban–inspired, buoyant rhythm melds with a sultry saxophone.

It opens their collaborative album Double Vision, released in May 1986, and this classic won the 29th Annual Grammy Award.

As BGM to grace an elegant dinner, you couldn’t ask for a more perfect tune.

Me and the Devil BluesRobert Johnson

Speaking of Robert Johnson, he is a truly mythic figure known for the “Crossroads legend,” in which he is said to have sold his soul to the devil to gain his guitar prowess.

This work, which epitomizes his mystique, can be described as a song overflowing with diabolical allure.

Its lyrics—walking shoulder to shoulder with the devil at dawn and asking to have his body buried by the highway—leave a powerful impact on the listener.

The urgent vocals and razor-sharp guitar brilliantly express the protagonist’s profound loneliness and resignation to fate.

Released as a single in 1938 and included on the landmark album The Complete Recordings, the song also lent its title to a manga based on his life.

It’s a must-listen for anyone who wants to experience the primal narrative power of the blues.

My Little BrotherArt Brut

Art Brut is an indie rock/art punk band formed in London.

Their frontman, Eddie Argos, is known for his distinctive talk-singing style and humor-filled lyrics.

Released as a single in December 2004, this track depicts, from an older brother’s perspective, the moment his younger brother awakens to rock music.

Set to a driving guitar sound, the warm, affectionate, and slightly teasing way he watches over his brother falling in love with music makes this a truly charming classic.

The song was also included on the following year’s acclaimed album “Bang Bang Rock & Roll,” and it reached No.

5 on the UK Indie Singles Chart.

It’s recommended for those who want to relive the primal thrill of hearing rock for the first time, or who’d like to reflect on their own relationships with their siblings while listening.

This track was released in August 2018 as the lead single from the smash-hit album Amo.

Many listeners likely sensed Bring Me The Horizon’s further evolution when they heard it.

It unfolds from a distorted guitar intro into a festival-ready, catchy chorus.

The fact that it was nominated for Best Rock Song at the 61st Annual Grammy Awards speaks to its quality.

Also keep an eye on the thought-provoking music video, which ties in with the lyrics.

Since their formation in the early 2000s, Shinedown—the titan of American hard rock who has released numerous hit songs—has earned a record-breaking 19 Number Ones on Billboard’s Mainstream Rock chart.

From their 2018 concept album “Attention Attention,” the track released as a single in March 2019 is a perfect fit for Halloween’s dark atmosphere! The song centers on an intensely personal theme: vocalist Brent Smith’s own battle with addiction, depicting the struggle against the “monster within” that leads one toward self-destruction.

The way it shifts from a quiet verse to an explosive, roaring chorus feels like a sonic portrayal of a ferocious fight with that inner beast.

It’s a highly recommended pick for anyone looking to set a serious, introspective mood on Halloween night!
