Boo…raisan
A work that captures the delicate emotions of facing public curiosity and gossip, resonating with strong will and biting irony.
It was released as an advance single from Reisan’s album “SOME BUDDY,” announced in February 2025.
Blending hip-hop and rock, the song stands out for its lyrics that satirize the fickleness of society, which flips its stance depending on the situation.
In an age of social media and the internet, it’s a track that gives courage to confront criticism and slander—something anyone can relate to today.
crimsonX JAPAN
If you ever find yourself feeling angry in daily life, try calming that anger by listening to “Kurenai” by X JAPAN, one of Japan’s most iconic metal bands.
YOSHIKI’s high-speed, powerful drumming will clear your head before your stress boils over, and TOSHI’s piercing high-tone vocals are sure to blow away that pent-up frustration.
A brutally frank aquariumkuriipuhaipe
CreepHyp are a four-piece rock band that has gained popularity with songs featuring lyrics written from a unique angle and melodies with catchy hooks.
Aquarium Without Mince Words, included on their major-label debut album I Thought I’d Be Loved Forever Until I Die, creates a powerful impact with its memorable guitar riff and spoken-word poetry.
The depiction of recalling past anger while trapped in a confined space is something many listeners can relate to.
It’s a rock tune with an energetic ensemble that exhilaratingly gives voice to pent-up rage.
DADARADWIMPS
When negative emotions start to pile up, I want to let them out with this song—RADWIMPS’s “DADA.” Released as a single in 2011, the title “DADA” comes from things like “Dadaism” and “throwing a tantrum.” When you’re irritated, your thoughts get scattered and you don’t know what to do, right? These lyrics have parts that straighten out those thoughts and bring you back to basics with an “Oh, I see.” With its intense rhythm and piercing words, it’ll surely leave you feeling refreshed.
a May flyRADWIMPS
A track distinguished by a heavy, full-bodied band sound that bursts forth like a broken dam.
Its shockingly violent lyrics vividly convey the impulsive hatred that comes when affection turns to loathing.
At the same time, the extreme expressions hint at a profound love that has transformed into hatred.
Very, very reluctantKontenporarīna seikatsu
It doesn’t quite go as far as “anger,” but it captures that subtle stress—the everyday irritations—that makes you want to nod along.
The sudden key change into the chorus and the straightforward wording make it a thrilling track.
When those little frustrations start piling up, it’s a song you’ll want to blast while headbanging your heart out.
Black sheepKeyakizaka46
Keyakizaka46’s 2019 single “Kuroi Hitsuji” (“Black Sheep”).
The tense, stinging arrangement from the very first line is superb, and the lower-register vocals carry a vivid sense of anger.
The downbeat lyrics are full of empathy and emotion, perfectly suited to this song.
It’s the ultimate anger anthem from a massively popular idol group.
