Alcala’s greatest and most popular songs

Little Omiya, the Temper Tantrum GirlArukara

Arukara - "Omiya-chan the Firecracker" (Official Music Video)

It’s a track with a slightly unusual code-like vibe.

It’s highly distinctive, and that slightly off-kilter feel is oddly addictive.

The song’s structure is also put together extremely well, and I found it to be a wonderful piece.

It’s the kind of track that makes you want to hit play just one more time.

The King and the LocomotiveArukara

Arukara – The King and the Locomotive (Live at Zepp DiverCity, Tokyo, 2013)

This song, the epitome of Alcala, who bills themselves as the “eccentric master of the rock world,” is quirky yet super catchy from the very first line: “shuppoppo, shuppoppo, gattan gattan gotton ton.” It’s an up-tempo, whirlwind track that always fires up the crowd live.

Tropical Grandma ~Baa-Ba-Ba-Baa~Arukara

Alcala – Tropical Grandma ~Baa-ba-ba-baa~

As the title suggests, this track has a slightly tropical vibe.

It’s tropical, technical, and incredibly distinctive—really cool.

Listening to it with a tropical grandma makes you want to see what that would look like, right? (lol) I feel like a tropical grandma might even show up in my dreams tonight.

Notes of the FutureArukara

Arukara “Mi-Ra-I-No-O-To” 2020.11.27 Arukara Zepp Tokyo one-man live ‘Those Wonderful Days 2020’ @ Zepp Tokyo

Their music has an original structure, yet it feels remarkably vibrant.

I’ve heard that many people are especially captivated by the flashes of refined sensibility that shine within its gritty elements.

They truly radiate a one-of-a-kind presence, don’t they? It’s rock that carries a powerful, forward-looking message—urging those who are striving now to become stronger someday in the distant future.

Song of BeginningsArukara

Alcala – The Song of Beginnings

Included on the 2009 album “BOY NEXT DOOR.” It’s a track characterized by a slow tempo yet weighty beat that begins with interplay between two guitars, resulting in a serious composition that contrasts with the image of the “eccentric performer.”

Did you find what you were looking for?Arukara

Alcala – Have you found what you were looking for?

They often make songs with a strong, quirky vibe, but this time it’s a slightly more pop-leaning track.

Still, because it’s Arukara, their distinctive atmosphere remains intact.

That unique mood lurking within the easy listen is irresistible, isn’t it? You’re sure to get butterflies, no doubt about it.

Looking back, he kicks upward.Arukara

Arukara is known for having many guitar phrases with a unique vibe, but this song stands out for its mellow, ear-pleasing phrases.

The bassline and drums are incredibly cool too.

It’s a definite heart-stealer.

It’s a track that really showcases their high level of musicianship.
