GO!GO!7188 “Rock” SHIBUYA CANONBALL (Live on Aug 25, 2004) / Yuu (Yumi Nakashima), Akko (Akiko Noma), Turkey (Hiroyuki Hosokawa)

A track included on the seventh single, “C7.” As the title suggests, it’s a straight-up rock number.

Its fierce three-chord rock style was, I believe, copied by many band musicians at the time.

There are many ways to express rock, but this is, in my view, the best number for channeling a girl’s intense, rock-driven emotions through both the vocals and the music.

The Night of Howling at the Red MoonGO!GO!7188

The Night of Howling at the Crimson Moon GO!GO!7188

It’s a song that paints a moving, heart-stirring scene! It’s included on GO!GO!7188’s 2004 album Ryūzetsuran (Agave).

As the striking title “Howling at the Red Moon” suggests, it expresses loneliness and a sense of loss through the powerful image of a red moon.

With surf rock–style guitar riffs and punk-infused elements, the sound should be approachable even for beginner bands.

Paired with the lyrics’ worldview, it’s sure to capture the audience’s hearts.

It’s a track guaranteed to fire up crowds in all kinds of settings, from live houses to school festivals.

Why not give it a try and perform it yourselves?

A negative song that wonders, “If everything I have now disappeared, what would I do?” It sounds like it could be quite sad, but since the overall vibe is still crafted to be pop, it’s a uniquely expressive track—and I think it’s a good one.

ballad

In GO!GO!7188’s catalog, “Koi no Uta” and “C7” are staples, but this work is a masterpiece on par with them.

It sings about someone who was always there as if it were natural no longer being by your side, and about continuing to walk forward in life nonetheless.

After a breakup, you can lose confidence and become timid about the next love, but it’s best to embrace it as a precious memory and use it to move forward.

A – GO!GO!7188

Amid an upbeat, lively sound, a dark atmosphere lingers—this is a hidden gem by GO!GO!7188.

The lyrics depict a very grim theme, expressing the senseless, unrewarded death that strikes without warning throughout the piece.

It feels like the lament of someone caught up in conflict, spilling out the thoughts that flashed through their mind at the sudden moment of death.

The portrayal of a chain of sorrow that doesn’t end with a single person’s death weighs heavily on the heart.
