While rooted in post-hardcore, FOAD from Yokohama is a band I’d like to introduce for the metallic edge you can feel in their tight rhythms.

Even overseas, metalcore that leans metal and metalcore that leans hardcore are often discussed in slightly different scenes, but FOAD could be called a rare act that bridges that gap.

In 2019, they faced their first member departure since forming and temporarily paused live activities, but in 2020 they made their long-awaited return.

When it comes to songs you want to listen to in the summer, I’d say GADORO’s classic “Daibakushō feat.

SIMON & Zeebra (Prod.

Kiwy).” The collaboration with SIMON and Zeebra also drew a lot of attention.

Its upbeat message—like laughing off any hardship—really stands out.

The energetic yet sophisticated sound produced by Kiwy is another big draw.

Included on the album “TAKANABE,” released in April 2024, this track is sure to be an anthem for people working hard through the sweltering summer.

When it comes to GLIM SPANKY’s classic releases, the mini-album “MUSIC FREAK” comes to mind.

They’re known for blending blues and rock in their sound, and this record features a well-balanced selection of tracks that lean toward each style.

For example, the opening track “Dummy Rock and Blues” is characterized by an intense sound with a strong rock flavor.

On the other hand, the closing track “Yokaze no Machi” has a gentle sound with a stronger blues feel.

[Dance] Popopo PoseGReeeeN

Introducing “Popopopopose” by Mr.

Green, a big hit on NHK’s “Inai Inai Baa!” The sounds pa-pi-pu-pe-po have a magical feel that captivates children.

This song is packed with “p” sounds in the lyrics, making it fun both to listen to and to sing.

Plus, it incorporates rock-paper-scissors, which four-year-olds love, so kids can dance as if they’re playing.

Matching the choreography to the lyrics allows for full-body expression and makes it really engaging.

If you include a section where children can move freely with their favorite poses, their individuality will shine through, creating a dance that’s enjoyable for the audience as well.
