Maximum the Hormone’s Best and Popular Songs Compilation [A Must-See for Hungry Fans!] (41–50)
Killer Intent vs. Killer IntentMakishimamu Za Horumon
Maximum the Hormone, a defining presence in Japanese metal.
Known for their hard-hitting sound that blends nu metal and hardcore punk, many listeners find their songs challenging to sing.
Among their catalog, the one I especially recommend is ‘Intent to Kill vs Intent to Kill.’ In this work, which features a collaboration with Toma Ikuta, his parts are relatively simple, but the rest demand high-level vocal techniques that rely heavily on death growls and screams.
AkagiMakishimamu Za Horumon
A kind of hidden gem that enjoys considerable popularity among hardcore fans.
The contrast between the brisk, fast-paced verses and the heavy, weighty chorus is quintessential Maximum the Hormone! It also made waves as the theme song for a popular anime of the same name.
Slap (and kick) a sow’s assMakishimamu Za Horumon
An overall high-speed, adrenaline-charged number.
It seems they always play it at recent festival appearances, and it’s cementing its place as a new live staple.
And you know, everyone shouting and singing along to this ridiculously silly title is actually pretty great (lol).

This song was released in 2004 on “Hōchō, Hasami, Kattā, Naifu, Dosu, Kiri,” and it’s also included on the following year’s album “Rokkinpo Goroshi.” Anyway, the title is long (lol).
The lyrics are mostly just repeating “rei” (spirit) and “ma” (demon).
The title is a bit, well, you know, but among Hormone’s tracks it’s a very bright pop song.

A track included on their ninth single, “Greatest the Hits 2011–2011,” released in 2011.
At the beginning of the music video, a song titled “Chiisana Kimi no Te” plays—an uncharacteristic piece for the band—which surely delighted many fans with their trademark sense of playfulness.
Kicking off with a headbanging, heavy guitar riff and death growls, this song is quintessential Maximum the Hormone.
The lyrics weave in titles of their past songs and albums, making it a track that can be called a milestone in their career.
Minoreba☆RockMakishimamu Za Horumon
A track included on the double A-side single “Rock Bankuruwase / Minoreba☆Rock,” released in June 2004.
Blending elements from pop punk to heavy metal, this shape-shifting musical style makes the song an absolute thrill to listen to.
As the title suggests, the lyrics humorously celebrate yakiniku offal cuts like mino and liver—charming and fun, right? It’s a perfect pick when you want to get hyped or recharge with some high-energy music!
Reiwa Strawberry VibeMakishimamu Za Horumon
This is a rearranged version of “Heisei Strawberry Vibe,” a track included on the second album Kuso-ban, released in 2024.
The music video for the song is featured in the 2022 video work Dhurha Vs Dhurha: Wig vs.
Wig, making it a hidden gem known mainly to devoted fans.
Blending a heavy, loud sound with the exhilarating punch of punk, it’s immensely satisfying to listen to.
It’s a popular number often played live, with an appeal that fosters a strong sense of unity with the audience.
A perfect pick for anyone seeking energetic music.
