StarlightBABYMETAL
It might be a little different from what you’d call a “band,” but please allow me to introduce them: BABYMETAL, a music group that fuses metal and idol culture.
They’re extremely popular overseas as well.
Their concerts and music festival appearances are always electric.
Their songs range from ones that retain an idol vibe to full-fledged metal sound.
They have a remarkably broad fan base.
fategoomiey
In 2023, the bassist and drummer officially joined, and the girls’ band goomiey restarted as a three-piece.
Their first digital single in the new lineup, “Unmei” (“Destiny”), is a high-energy track with a straightforward guitar rock sound.
The message, imbued with gratitude toward the fans who supported them during the solo project era, is sure to move even those who aren’t already fans.
It’s a heart-stirring rock tune packed with the charm of the reborn goomiey.
I won’t forget it.kessoku bando
Despite being a fictional band born from an anime, Kessoku Band has become hugely popular, drawing in both Japanese and Western rock listeners.
Based on a hit manga and adapted into a TV anime in 2022, Bocchi the Rock! instantly won over not only anime fans but also music lovers, as mentioned earlier.
Framed as the debut album by Kessoku Band as they appear in the show, the self-titled album released in 2022 became an extraordinary hit and a major talking point.
From among Kessoku Band’s tracks, this piece will introduce “I Won’t Forget.” It’s an undisputed killer tune, performed first during the cultural festival scene in episode 12 of the anime.
It works perfectly as a cute slice of girls’ rock, and the restless, roaming guitar lines brilliantly capture Kessoku Band’s signature feel.
Be sure to pay attention to the lyrics as well: they explore complicated feelings about youth without getting too heavy, yet without tipping too far into positivity—striking a finely balanced tone.
