Pardon the excessNEW!Porunogurafiti
Bursting onto the scene with their debut single Apollo and remaining at the forefront of the J-pop world for years, the rock band PornoGraffitti returns.
Released for streaming in January 2026, this track was written as the opening theme for the TV anime Fire-Eating Bird: Yorihane no Kuni Borotonbi-gumi.
Guitarist Haruichi Shindo delved into the original novel, crafting lyrics that incorporate Japanese-style expressions aligned with the period-drama setting—words that are sure to resonate with people fighting their own battles in modern society as well.
It’s the band’s first attempt at a theme song for a historical piece.
When you want to start something new or fire yourself up, give it a listen—it’s guaranteed to give you a push forward.
GiftPorunogurafiti
It’s a message song that asks, “You might not be confident in yourself, but how about giving it a try without getting too pessimistic?” People say we worry about a lot of things we don’t need to.
Sometimes, just taking action can be the way to solve things, right? Hold this song close to your heart and try believing in yourself.
cactusPorunogurafiti
Porno Graffitti’s fifth single, “Saboten” (“Cactus”), repeatedly uses words like rain and water in its lyrics.
When you think about the meaning of the lyrics, they invite many possible interpretations, making it a song that showcases the depth of Porno Graffitti’s writing.
As you listen, try considering what the cactus and the rain represent within the song.
The Slope of KarmaPorunogurafiti
A song with a distinctive rhythm wrapped in the atmosphere of kayōkyoku.
Once you hear it, it won’t leave your head.
As the story unfolds in this track, if you listen closely, the ending will make you go, “Huh?” It’s a great song that really makes you think about questions like, “How should we live?”
Search the best wayPorunogurafiti
Suddenly, we have a song whose lyrics are rich in metaphor and quite difficult to interpret.
Even so, the underlying feelings come through clearly.
Over a long life, we will find ourselves troubled time and again, repeating cycles of anguish and regret as we ask, “Is this really okay?” This song is crafted to give you courage in those moments and gently push you forward.
Love you, love youPorunogurafiti
It has a jazz-tinged style and is sung in a soft, gentle atmosphere.
Thanks to vocalist Okano’s distinctly clear voice, it creates a charmingly jazzy feel.
It’s a song that conveys a woman’s love, even slipping in some affectionate bragging.
If you try to put a positive spin on the troublesome parts of your partner, you might see a different landscape emerge.
VSPorunogurafiti
It’s a song that begins quietly and beautifully.
But it’s not merely beautiful—it burns with a heat that keeps pushing you forward, as if urging you on.
True to its title, “VS,” it’s a song that reveals a battle—and the opponent in that battle is your former self, the boy you once were.
Framed by the contrast between the adult you and the boy of the past, this track is fiery, yet tinged with a certain sadness, finishing with a sense of nostalgia.
