They’re the perfect band for anyone who wants to fully experience the pure, aggressive appeal of metalcore.
MAGICAdo
Continuing to captivate anime fans across borders, Ado’s track was released in October 2025 as the opening theme for Cat’s Eye.
Created through her first collaboration with Vocaloid producer Tsumiki, the song is a catchy, cleverly intricate dance number where the urbane image of the original 1980s work intersects with a modern Reiwa-era sound.
The lyrics weave in motifs such as “deception,” “truth,” and “steal,” symbolizing the cat-burglar trio’s gamesmanship and duality, while Ado’s shape-shifting vocals unfold over a driving beat.
The music video, set in a casino, visualizes the tension of high-stakes gambles and a spellbinding sense of allure.
It’s a perfect pick for those who want to immerse themselves in a stylish anime world or who love energetic dance tracks.
Mighty ClashSHANK
This track, defined by its exhilarating performance and straight-ahead punk beat, appears as the second song on the album “Honesty,” released in January 2017.
Through repeated experiences of hitting a wall, it sings about the importance of accepting yourself as you are, with lyrics that honestly lay bare inner struggles while encouraging friends—an impression that really stands out.
The official music video was shot in a single take with a goofy concept, making for an interesting contrast with the serious lyrics.
It’s a song I’d love people to hear when they’re trying to move forward despite doubt and anxiety.
Mind Games feat. HEY-SMITHSHANK
Overflowing with a sense of speed, this melodic punk track is brought to life with vibrant horn arrangements by HEY-SMITH and is included on the album STEADY, released in January 2022.
Its English lyrics depict the mind games and inner conflicts that unfold in relationships and within oneself.
Because it was written during the challenging COVID-19 era, its message carries real weight.
At the Nagoya and Osaka dates of the STEADY TOUR 2022, Osaka rock band HEY-SMITH joined as special guests, delivering a fiery performance with their horn section.
It’s a song that gives you a push forward when you need the courage to face everyday struggles.
Matsuken Samba IIMiyagawa Akira
Akira Miyagawa, who calls himself a “stage musician,” works across a wide range from classical to anime music.
Composed and arranged by Miyagawa, Ken Matsudaira’s 2004 smash hit “Matsuken Samba II” is a tune everyone can hum.
He also made a strong impression by appearing on NHK music programs himself, sharing the allure of music with children.
In 1996, he received the ABC International Music Award for his work with the Osaka Philharmonic.
Guided by his belief that “a concert is a show,” Miyagawa commands the stage as conductor, pianist, and commentator—like musical magic! He may be the perfect conductor for anyone seeking music they can truly enjoy, regardless of genre.

Featured on her 1999 album “Muzai Moratorium,” it’s distinguished by a shuffle beat infused with jazz and rock elements, and urbane lyrics that weave in gear names like Gibson and Marshall.
Sing it over the sprightly piano melody, and the atmosphere instantly takes on a refined sheen.
Fans of Shiina Ringo or Tokyo Jihen, of course, but also any music lovers at year-end or New Year parties, will likely nod in approval: “Nice choice.” With a groove that feels great to sing, it has long been a staple pick for karaoke.

Its newspaper-style cover design is striking, and the lyrics blend humor with a strong message.
As the year draws to a close, it carries a powerful yet warm affirmation of one’s presence—“I’m still here.” The song conveys a determination to keep looking forward despite hardships, making it perfect for reflecting on the year at the end of December.
Even if things didn’t go well this year, listening to this track will likely make you think, “I’ll do my best next year.” It’s a number that makes you want to cheer yourself on amid the reflective atmosphere of year’s end.
