Kishidan’s famous and popular songs

We’d like to introduce songs by Kishidan, a rock band that performs in a “Yank Rock” style—a fusion of punk rock and the Japanese delinquent (yankee) aesthetic.

Their unwavering commitment to the yankee concept, sharp sense of humor, and undeniable rock-band cool all coexist.

And where can you fully savor their appeal? It has to be their live shows.

One moment you’ll be laughing at their witty MCs, the next you’ll be captivated by their tight performances—and when the chorus hits, everyone joins in the choreography for a good time.

It’s a packed experience.

So, with those live scenes in mind, please enjoy this playlist.

Kishidan’s Best and Most Popular Songs (1–10)

Kisarazu SallyKishidan

This is also a TV drama’s theme song.

It’s a bit mellow and really pleasant to listen to.

When I think of delinquents, Kisarazu is the classic that comes to mind.

The songs are like that, and since Sho worked on the drama as well, I think he’s truly multi-talented.

Every track is really a masterpiece.

Black SunKishidan

This is another popular classic song, and even listening to it now feels nostalgic—but the melody is still so good.

Sho’s straightforward singing is wonderful.

It still sounds great today, and I could listen to it forever.

It reminded me of my younger days.

It’s a song I’ll want to keep listening to even as time goes by.

Heart of IronKishidan

I also love this song itself because it’s so cool.

It’s got a great groove.

Even listening now, it still feels fresh and reminds me of that upbeat, head-bobbing rhythm from back then.

I used to listen to it a lot with my friends.

I also played it to get pumped up when going out.

bestieKishidan

A single that delivers exactly what its title proclaims: “Marriage Fighting-Spirit March.” Set to a lively band sound, this celebratory song for a friend resonates with many.

It wishes the newlyweds a happy life together, making it perfect for weddings.

Please sing this prayer-for-happiness song to your friends as they embark on their life together.

Nakanoshima Bridge BluesKishidan

A blues rock number steeped in melancholy, one that conjures up the sea breeze of Kisarazu and the sight of slightly rusted guardrails.

Set against a red bridge bathed in the colors of dusk, it paints a sentimental portrait of the bittersweet end of a love that didn’t work out and the helpless feelings that linger.

Many listeners may find themselves overlaying their own tender, painful memories onto Sho Ayanokoji’s strained, wrung-out vocals and the bluesy guitar melodies.

This track is featured on the classic album “Ai Ra Bu Yu,” released in October 2005 and which reached No.

7 on the Oricon Weekly chart.

On a night when you want to sink into a slightly sentimental mood, it might be nice to listen while driving down a road filled with memories.

Goodbye, worldKishidan

I can really tell you’re singing seriously.

It’s simple, but you deliver it straight, and Sho’s voice is cool.

It’s great that you can not only hype things up but also sing solid, well-crafted songs.

I want more people in the world to hear it.

Sparkle, sparkle!Kishidan

It’s a graduation song, but it’s bright and kind of uplifting.

They act a bit goofy, but when it matters, they’re serious, and it really makes me feel they’re a great group.

I think Sho’s personality is what makes the difference.

He’s cool—really handsome.
