PA PA YA!! (feat. F.HERO)BABYMETAL
BABYMETAL, a new kind of idol group that fuses metal with cuteness, has become popular not only in Japan but around the world.
In 2019, they released “PA PA YA!!”.
It’s a song that feels hot and summery—just listening to it pumps you up.
Be sure to headbang along and blow off some steam.
The sky is always clear and blue.Chirol
Chirol’s “The Sky Is Always Clear and Blue” makes you forget the harsh summer heat.
This song is one of the great tracks by a girls’ band that conveys emotional passion.
Their performance skills are exceptional; the powerful vocals and guitar intertwine with a bass and drum groove that makes your body sway, delivering a wonderfully satisfying sound.
It’s also a great pick for cover bands—guitar, bass, and drum parts are all simple, so beginners can play with confidence!
Return to Myself ~No, no, summer.Cyntia
Cyntia’s “Return to Myself ~Shinai, Shinai, Natsu” is a cover of the metal queen Mari Hamada and a top pick for a breezy summer.
While the original has a pop arrangement, this cover transforms it with a solid, hard-rock sound into a powerful rendition only they could deliver! The breakneck heavy metal runs you hear in Cyntia’s signature track “Senkou Strings” are dialed back here, but the band’s rock-solid musicianship—honed through those notoriously difficult fast phrases—subtly shines through in this cover.
That’s the real highlight!
