Summary of Maximum the Hormone’s Best and Most Popular Songs [A Must-See for the Famished!] (21–30)
Shit Breakin’, Brain Breakin’, LilyMakishimamu Za Horumon
This is “Kuso Breakin Noh Breakin Lily,” included on Maximum the Hormone’s sixth album, “Buiikikaesu,” released in 2007.
The title is, as always, characteristically Hormone and tough to interpret, but if you really read the lyrics, it turns out to be quite a tearjerker—a song that gently resonates with the heart.
It’s also one of the more singable tracks among Hormone’s songs.
Beauty Kill-seumMakishimamu Za Horumon
This is a quintessential, straight-up loud rock ultra-heavy track.
It’s a song metal fans won’t be able to resist.
That said, it’s not just loud rock all the way through—the hip-hop-style section in the middle reminds you that Hormone never plays it straight, and as a fan I’m constantly captivated.
Rockinpo KillerMakishimamu Za Horumon
An ultra-aggressive track that unabashedly shouts the reasons why Maximum the Hormone does rock.
The song is fast and razor-edged in its finish.
The bass part is insanely difficult, making it something of a rite of passage among bassists—or so they say.
Shimi feat. ATARASHII GAKKO!Makishimamu Za Horumon
A frenzy of loud rock featuring Atarashii Gakko! is sending fresh shockwaves through the music scene.
Built on Maximum the Hormone’s mixture-rock foundation and fusing nu metal with hardcore punk, this work unfolds a world of enigmatic lyrics woven with metaphors and symbolic imagery.
Included on the single “Ki-Se-I Rush,” released June 19, 2024, its music video—shot in an abandoned housing complex—premiered on YouTube that September.
The fusion of dark, heavy sound with electrifying dance performance has drawn attention as a bold new form of expression.
It’s a powerful track recommended for anyone who wants to unleash their inner emotions along with the music.
Sweet American Crap of LoveMakishimamu Za Horumon
Although it has some shout parts, the song basically progresses while keeping a bittersweet melody.
Not limited to this track, apparently whenever Maximum the Ryo-kun uses a title that starts with “Koi no~” (“Love’s ~”), it means he’s extremely confident in the quality of the melody.
Extortion ~Kyokatsu~Makishimamu Za Horumon
As the title, which plays on the phrase “Win Today!”, suggests, this is a song of resolve to raise the banner of counterattack amid days of continual defeat.
It features relentlessly aggressive and forward-looking lyrics that could truly serve as an anthem for life.
If there’s one song where you can’t say “the lyrics make no sense!”, it’s this one.
Toilet-sandal danceMakishimamu Za Horumon
Many of you might recognize it from the gum commercial that opened with footage of monkeys headbanging.
It’s Maximum the Hormone’s “Benjo Sandal Dance.” It’s an incredibly catchy track that makes your body—no, your head—start banging on its own.
It was also used as a support theme song for the movie Kick-Ass 2.
It’s a song dedicated to the toilet sandals that Maximum the Ryo-kun loves.
