Lonelinessdustbox
It’s a track included on their third mini-album, “Mr.
keating.” True to their style, it opens with a slightly laid-back intro and then unfolds into a driving, powerful sound.

Keating.” Brimming with energy and propelled by their signature sense of speed, the song speaks to awakening the various emotions slumbering within you and rekindling your passion for the things you love.
Someday&Somewheredustbox
An unchanging, classic melodic hardcore song from dustbox.
As the lyrics say, “it’s not a farewell song,” it’s a track about beginnings that could only be written because of everything they’ve experienced so far.
It also conveys a wish to meet again someday, somewhere.
Wall of icedustbox
From the 4th album “Seeds of Rainbows.” An unconventional track that starts with a quiet guitar, gradually builds tension, and then fades out softly again.
The torrential high-tone melody in the latter half is also striking.
The drums use relatively little two-beat outside the chorus, making it something of a curveball; precisely because of that, it showcases the breadth of their songwriting.
Fallingdustbox
Praised by hardcore fans as “like reading a short story” and “a song you suddenly feel like listening to,” this track from dustbox’s album Blooming Harvest, released in November 2008, is characterized by lyrics that portray the bittersweet emotions of love.
The protagonist’s complex feelings toward a woman and his struggle to put his feelings into words fuse with driving melodic punk, resonating deeply with listeners.
Showcasing dustbox’s impressive musicianship and pop savvy—evident in their chord work—this is a standout song.
It’s perfect for anyone troubled by love or burdened with feelings they can’t express.
WAY TO THE SUNdustbox
It’s included on the mini-album “Sign To The Sun.” Unusually, all the lyrics are in Japanese, so you can really take them in as you listen.
It’s a moving song that resonates in the heart, carrying a sense of sadness and struggle, as if feeling anxious about the path you’re moving forward on.
