Centered around Nachi—who grew up in rural Niigata and picked up the guitar in middle school after becoming captivated by Hi-STANDARD—Sabishisuta was formed in March 2022 and has been making headlines with their rapid rise.

In just five short months after forming, they landed a slot at SUMMER SONIC and were also selected to join 04 Limited Sazabys on tour, solidifying their momentum as a girls’ rock band.

In January 2024, they signed with PIZZA OF DEATH, headed by their idol Ken Yokoyama of Hi-STANDARD, and made their major-label debut with the album “Kakugo o Kimero!” Their music—singing of inner thrills and frustrations, as well as gratitude toward loved ones, set to melodies that evoke a sense of nostalgia—captures the hearts of many with its pure emotion and powerful performance.

Erisa, who made the leap from idol model to rock band member, captivates with her versatile expressiveness.

As the vocalist of EMONON, she has been fully active in music since 2023, skillfully blending an exhilarating band sound with catchy melodies.

On the album “NO NAME,” the collection of songs—both intense and delicate—moves listeners deeply, and within just a year of forming, the band proved its mettle by successfully headlining a solo show at Shibuya eggman.

Drawing influence from UVERworld and Vaundy, her powerful vocals fused with the expressive skills honed during her idol days create a unique world that’s perfect for listeners seeking a voice that truly resonates.

Brandy Senki is a girls’ band that has earned high praise for their sophisticated musicality.

While their signature sound blends various genres—rock, Black music, techno, and more—this track, “Last Live,” is crafted as a more orthodox rock piece.

The vocal line, with its delicate glow, has a narrow range and lacks complex pitch shifts, making it a very singable song for women with lower voices.

Consider adding it to your repertoire.

Bye-bye7!!

Bye Bye by 7!!, known as the opening single for the anime Kimi to Boku.

It’s the kind of song that would rank high on my list of “great unknown songs a friend sang at karaoke.” It has a distinctive flavor, and it’s a track that really gets everyone hyped when you sing it together with friends.

A song I want to sing when I feel down is DREAMS COME TRUE’s “Nando Demo” (“Over and Over”).

When I was about to lose, I listened to this song and got back on my feet so many times—many people have surely found courage from it.

Its easy-to-sing melody line makes it hard to go off pitch, so it’s a song anyone can sing easily.

The unique world they create captivates listeners.

Many fans admire their vibe, connect with the lyrics, and sing their songs at karaoke.

For those living day to day in a haze of boredom and inertia, I especially recommend singing “Atashi no Sniper.”

NOW ON AIRakai kouen

Songs that feel good to listen to also make you feel good when you sing them.

Songs that let you pour out your emotions as you sing are popular with both singers and listeners.

That’s Red Park’s “NOW ON AIR.” Its thick, power-packed sound is easy to sing to and creates a sense of exhilaration.
