Surprise SunThee 50's high teens

This is a thrilling rock track from the debut album by Thee 50’s High Teens, a girls’ garage band out of Fukuoka.

It perfectly blends the raw energy of ’60s garage punk with irresistibly singable, kayōkyoku-style melodies.

Riding on a chic organ tone, they belt out the excitement of an unpredictable future with power and verve.

The song appears on the album “Thee 50’s High Teens,” released in September 2003.

When you’re stuck and weighed down by worries, the song’s boundless brightness will give you a helpful push forward.

A small poemMARIA

A powerful debut track where heartfelt cries ring out over a lively rock sound.

It’s a song by MARIA, a band formed around former ZONE member Maiko, released in March 2006 and used as the opening theme for the anime Yakitate!! Japan.

Debuting at No.

10 on the Oricon charts, it clearly shows how much attention it drew at the time.

The rich ensemble created by the unusual twin-guitar, twin-bass lineup is overwhelming.

And the lyrics—anxieties about whether one’s voice will be heard, alongside the earnest desire to make it reach—strike listeners straight in the heart.

With this song, why not embrace both your struggles and your hopes, and take your next step forward?

This is MiyuMiyu’s debut work, featuring a gentle guitar tone and whisper-like vocals that feel soothing.

Released as a single in June 2003, it’s marked by a nostalgic melody reminiscent of a walk home at dusk.

Listening to it as an adult may bring back important feelings you had forgotten.

Take your time and immerse yourself in this tender sound.

exist trace- ambivalence (Romaji+English)

Ambivalence depicts the feelings of thinking about someone precious even while being hurt, rendered through a heavy, powerful sound.

This track was released as a first single in August 2005.

The interlacing twin-guitar riffs and the thick, driving rhythm section seem to embody the protagonist’s weighty love.

On top of that, Jo’s vocals—blending growls and shouts—are like a raw, inner scream.

Immerse yourself in its dark yet beautiful world.

Calm Soulspeena

This is the debut song by a three-woman band consisting of vocals, guitar, and drums that debuted from avex trax in 2000.

They performed as Yvonne Sisters starting in 2007, but disbanded in 2011.

Parallel WorldBLiSTAR

This is the debut song by the girls’ rock band BLiSTAR.

Even when you try to reset your heart in a digitized world, there are precious memories you just can’t erase.

Many will relate to the struggle of being tormented by memories that grow clearer the more you try to forget, and to the turmoil of feelings you can’t neatly sort out.

Included on their debut mini-album “B,” released in November 2009, this track was also used as an insert song in the OVA of the popular comic “Shojo Fight.” When you need the courage to step onto the next stage, it will surely give you a gentle push.

Girls be Ambitious!MAD CATZ

An energetic pop-rock number that gives a powerful push to those taking off toward their dreams and goals.

This track comes from MAD CATZ, who drew attention at the time as a “super junior high school girls’ band.” Released in March 2008 as their debut single, it was also used as the opening theme for the anime Moegaku★5.

The lyrics, brimming with hope for the future—precisely because they were so young—resonate with real impact.

Fresh harmonies with all members taking on vocals and a buoyant guitar riff are part of its charm.

Why not dive into a new world with great aspirations in your heart while listening to this song?
