Seikima-II - The House of Wax Dolls

This is Seikima-II’s first single.

The vocalist is His Excellency Demon, who also appears as a commentator on news/variety programs and in commercials for a condo renovation company.

Some people might not know this, but His Excellency Demon is a singer.

When I first listened to his “House of Wax,” I flinched at the shouting part, but now this song helps me relieve stress.

ONE OK ROCK 「Re:make」

Here’s a ONE OK ROCK track that expresses pent-up anger and frustration as if slamming it down.

Listening to this song will make you feel a powerful energy that breaks through the status quo and transforms you into a new self.

Released in July 2011, it peaked at No.

6 on the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart and was later included on the album “Zankyō Reference.” It was also featured in a Recollect commercial and used as the theme song for Kansai TV’s “Professional Baseball Relay 2025,” so some of you might remember it.

When your heart feels like it’s about to explode from overwhelming rage or stress, why not let everything out with this song and feel refreshed? It’s sure to give you the courage to take a step toward tomorrow!

CreepHyp “A Matter-of-Fact Fish Tank (Live at Akasaka BLITZ, 2012/6/9)”

Creephyp is a four-piece rock band that has gained popularity with lyrics written from a unique angle and melodies with catchy hooks.

“Mimo Futamo Nai Suisou” (“A Tank With No Body or Lid”), included on their major-label debut album I Thought I’d Be Loved For the Rest of My Life Until I Die, leaves a powerful impression with its memorable guitar riff and poetry reading.

Many listeners will likely relate to the depiction of recalling past anger while trapped in a confined space.

It’s a rock tune with an invigorating, energetic ensemble that gives voice to pent-up, directionless rage.

O monstersSaucy Dog

Saucy Dog “Monsters” Music Video

If you’re feeling weighed down by the flood of information on social media and the suffocating mood of modern society, there’s a Saucy Dog track you should hear.

It’s a rock ballad marked by a heavy, striking guitar tone—an audacious piece that upends their previous image in the best possible way.

The song seems to quietly yet powerfully give voice to that inexpressible anger deep inside and to questions aimed at society.

Created as the theme song for the film Scroll, released in February 2023, it resonates strongly with the movie’s themes.

You can also find it on the mini-album But Really, released in July of the same year.

On days when nothing feels quite right, or when your heart is worn out by unfairness, give this track a play.

I’m sure it will help you sort through your emotions.
