From cute to cool: standout and recommended songs by uniquely individual girl bands (91–100)
Everyonechakura
This song marks a new frontier for Chakra, a four-piece girls’ rock band from Hachioji, Tokyo.
It carries a message that stands with those who have faced life’s pains and setbacks—never forcing positivity, but instead offering a gentle push forward.
Released in May 2025, the track drew attention as an advance digital single from the album “Distorted Love, But Still,” and the film released on YouTube deeply moved many viewers.
With its striking guitar riff and a bittersweet, emotionally resonant melody, it feels like the birth of a new anthem.
Like, dislikefantomu shiitaa
Phantom Theta is a five-member idol group that expresses a unique worldview rooted in retro horror.
This work, released in May 2025, is their first drama tie-in and serves as the opening theme for TV Tokyo’s Drama 24 series “Dear My Baby: Until I Control You.” Composed by Koharu of Charan-Po-Rantan, the song explores the theme of deranged love, fusing an addictive pop melody with unsettling sounds in exquisite balance.
In the music video directed by Nanene Suzuki, the distorted love-hate relationship between idols and fans is strikingly portrayed.
It’s a must-listen for those drawn to retro-horror-infused music and for anyone seeking fresh values beyond the conventional idol image.

FixBrandy Senki
Having finally made their major debut, the girls’ band Brandy Senki has been attracting attention not only in the Japanese rock scene but also in the mainstream.
They’ve already produced several great songs, but the one we especially recommend for women with lower voices is Fix.
While it’s not exactly a low-pitched song, the overall range is kept modest, making it perfectly manageable for singers with deeper voices.
Its relaxed tempo also makes it easy to make simple course corrections, so it’s a good pick for those who aren’t very confident in their singing.
Fuzzy NavelConton Candy
It’s a pleasant track where the warm, bittersweet mood melts together, imbued with the sweet scent of oranges.
It elegantly portrays the sweet, bitter, and aching emotions born from love by likening them to the taste of a cocktail.
While the melody feels refreshing, it’s quintessentially Conton Candy in the way it sings of the complexities of a loving heart.
Released in April 2023, this work is slated to be included on the album “melt pop,” scheduled for release in 2024.
The lyrics beautifully balance a sweet, love-song ambiance with a mature, narrative quality.
With a nostalgic atmosphere and an addictive melody, it also trended on social media.
Dreams!!!!NEK
Quoting their band name from the net slang “neki,” derived from “aneki” meaning a dependable older-sister figure, NEK! advocates a genre they call “slang rock.” Their debut EP EXCLAMAT!ON, released just six months after the band formed in 2024, has generated buzz, and the group is drawing attention as a new-generation girls’ rock band known for each member’s high-level musicianship.
Released in March 2025, the track Dreams!!!! is a killer tune that blends catchiness with bittersweet emotion—an instant classic that you can easily imagine igniting a live crowd and wouldn’t feel out of place as an anime theme.
Cocoro’s drumming, which uses plenty of syncopation to create a sense of speed, underpins the song with precise playing while sprinkling standout phrases throughout, such as the tight drum roll showcased in the second verse’s B section.
Drummers looking to take a step beyond a straightforward 8-beat should definitely study her approach.
Ready to RockBAND-MAID
An irresistible track with a powerful hard rock sound! Released in April 2025 by BAND-MAID, it was chosen as the opening theme for the TV anime “Rock Is a Lady’s Refinement.” This energetic number fuses forceful guitar riffs with driving drum beats to create a stunning sonic experience.
You can also enjoy the synergy between the lyrics—centered on self-realization and passion—and the music.
In producing the anime, the band members themselves handled the motion capture, faithfully recreating realistic performance scenes, which became a hot topic.
Give it a listen when you want to recharge your energy or push forward toward a new goal!
Romance GirlCaramel
A three-piece girls’ band with an average height of 149 cm, proclaiming an “Absolute!! Little Sister Declaration” as they aim to be a beloved little-sister presence in the music industry.
Their spontaneous street performances and high-level shows have drawn attention, and they’ve appeared at various music festivals.
