A person from the melodic hardcore boom generation who loves music, photography, and eating. I’ve been going to live houses for over 20 years. I’m at the age where summer festivals are starting to feel tough physically. I sometimes try shooting live photos and videos for MVs. I’m not great at English, so I often listen to straightforward Japanese rock that hits directly, but if someone recommends something, I’ll listen to anything—Western or Japanese—broadly and casually. I like cooking while listening to music; it’s a nice way to relieve stress.

"Streidia" - Chiitana feat. IA × ONE -

It means nothing if it's not you. 🧛‍♂️Halloween Vampire #Halloween
♪ Original song – Inaichan – Inaichan

Mysterious songs go perfectly with Halloween, don’t they? With that in mind, I’d like to introduce “STRAIDEA.” This track was created by Chiitana using the VOCALOID voices IA and ONE.

The first half has a gothic vibe, setting a melody that portrays a woman utterly absorbed in love.

Then, in the second half, the music grows more intense and shifts into a rap style.

That dramatic change in mood is part of its charm.

Also, pay attention to the lyrics, which evoke classic Halloween monsters.

Hump Back – “We’re in the car again today” Music Video

We’re in the car again today.Hump Back

Following SHISHAMO, Hump Back is another girls’ rock band that’s been on a roll.

That said, their appeal isn’t just the cuteness unique to girl bands! Their strong, unmistakably rock ’n’ roll songs and the slightly husky vocals of Momoko Hayashi are a big draw, and they’ve earned a reputation as an outright cool band.

Among their catalog, though, this particular song has a relatively gentle vibe and a relaxed tempo, making it easy to sing at karaoke.

Its short runtime—about three minutes—is another reason it’s great for karaoke.
