The song “Nonsense Song,” performed by the two dressed as mice, became a hit, selling over 200,000 copies.

DEAD END KIDSinugami saakasu dan
Formed in 1994, Inugami Circus-dan is a distinctive band that plays underground-tinged kayō rock.
Blending genres such as hard rock and punk, they draw attention with their signature visuals, including white face paint and kimonos.
They made their major-label debut in 2003, but returned to the indie scene in 2006 and have continued under their own label.
In 2011, they defined their direction as “a more lyrical, extreme, underground, Japanese-style band” and changed their name to the current Inugami Saakasudan.
They enjoy enduring popularity on the live circuit, releasing their first single with a new lineup in April 2020.
Even during the COVID-19 pandemic, they stayed active with streamed performances.
With a unique worldview and an unforgettable impact, their music is perfect for listeners seeking something truly individual.

This classic song, released as a single in 1988, blends a passionate rock sound with a powerful message, showcasing Otokogumi’s dual identity as both idols and a rock band to the fullest.
Expressing the resolve to embark on a new beginning with a loved one and the joy of overcoming loneliness to be reunited, the track topped the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart and ranked fourth on the year-end chart.
Demonstrating their talent from their debut, they won Best New Artist at the 30th Japan Record Awards that same year.
The song was also used as the theme for the Fuji TV drama “Otokodarō!” and the film “Rock Yo, Shizuka ni Nagareyo,” and it appears on the albums “NEW BEST Otokogumi” and “HIT COLLECTION.” While strongly rock-oriented, its passionate, message-driven lyrics are relatable to all genders, and with a generally lower key and not overly demanding vocals, it’s a perfect choice for anyone who wants to sing it with heartfelt emotion.

Mirei Toyama’s hit number “Dear My Boo.” This work is famous as an answer song to Shota Shimizu’s classic “My Boo,” and it became a nationwide hit.

The key attraction of this track is, above all, its lyrics.
Since it’s an answer song, a good flow might be to have the man sing “My Boo” first, followed by the woman singing “Dear My Boo.”
