[Low End] A Collection of Japanese Songs with Shining Bass Solos [2026] (71–80)
Born to benano
This is the fourth single by nano, a singer-songwriter who originally lived in the United States and came to Japan aiming to become an anisong singer after being inspired by the TV anime Fullmetal Alchemist.
The track was used as the ending theme for the TV anime Magical Warfare, and its contrast between cool rap over a heavy rock sound and a fast, catchy chorus really amps up the energy.
The hard-edged slap sound heard in the intro and interlude, as well as the melodic solo backed only by bass with no other instruments, showcase the wide expressive range of the bass guitar.
It’s a number that reaffirms the appeal of the bass—holding its own even within an ensemble that features vocals and guitar.
SiriusThe Back Horn
This is the 20th single by THE BACK HORN, a band renowned for its alternative sound based on the concept of delivering music that stirs the listener’s heart.
Released ahead of their 9th album, “Liv Squall,” it’s a rock number distinguished by a tight 3/4-time beat.
The melodious bass solo riding over a drum groove that features snare rolls both conveys the song’s world and adds dynamic shading to the ensemble.
It’s a track that blends loudness with lyrical melodies, evoking a poignant sense of melancholy that resonates deeply.
AmySiM
A four-piece rock band, SiM, popular for their alternative sound that embraces a wide musical range to the point of being dubbed a reggae-punk band.
This track, included on their 2nd mini-album “LiFE and DEATH,” showcases the band’s free-spirited musicality, with crisp, lively guitar tones shining through the loud, driving beat.
In the interlude where the rhythm suddenly shifts, you can enjoy bass sounds unique to effects-driven playing.
It’s a rock tune with an addictive ensemble that leverages low-end power, offering a different appeal from technically flashy bass solos.
A and BChirinuruwo Waka
A track that grabs your ears with its jagged, grunge-laden sound.
“Kō to Otsu” by the rock band Chirinuruwowaka is a song from their third album, “Akayoroshi,” released in 2012.
It’s a rock number that makes you want to crank up the volume, with lyrics that deliver an encouraging, strong message: follow your own path.
The wah-drenched bass solo is stylish and cool, and the guitar solo that rides in on top of it is fantastic as well.
The way the sounds surge together as one is just brilliant.
Also, don’t miss the avant-garde turn after the three-and-a-half-minute mark!
Morning Paperkururi
A song by Quruli, a two-piece rock band formed by classmates from Ritsumeikan University’s music club, whose ever-evolving, widening musicality continues to captivate fans with each release.
Included on their 5th album, “Antenna,” the track features a catchy arrangement that moves between a bluesy shuffle beat and a driving rock sound.
You can sense how the bass solo, played in sync with the intricate drum patterns, serves to heighten the chorus that follows.
With its complex arrangement that invites repeated listens while always feeling fresh, this number reaffirms Quruli’s exceptional musicianship and taste.
NoctilucaAme no Parēdo
With its relaxed tempo and airy, floating vocals, this is a message song that makes you want to close your eyes and listen.
“Noctiluca” by the band Ame no Parade is included on their first album, New generation, released in 2016.
The spacious sound embodies the lyrics’ desire to “be as I am,” and as you listen, you feel wrapped in a veil of sound.
The bass solo is also exquisitely gentle, so if you’re used to tracks with lots of slap playing, this will feel refreshingly different.
Stand up, Joe.Remioromen
Remioromen is a rock band that has produced numerous hit songs such as March 9th and Powder Snow.
Their 16th single, Stand Up, Joe, released in 2010, drew attention after being featured in a commercial.
Inspired by the boxing manga Ashita no Joe, it’s an anthem cheering on people who give their all every day, and it’s truly moving to listen to.
After the second chorus, a groovy slap bass kicks in—so cool you’ll want to put it on repeat!
