Maximum the Hormone’s Best and Most Popular Songs [A Must-See for Hara-Peko Fans!] (1–10)
Mega Lover of LoveMakishimamu Za Horumon
While heavy yet featuring catchy melodic lines, their musical essence is encapsulated in their seventh single, “Koi no Megalover,” released in July 2006.
This work, which marked their first entry into the Oricon Top 10, is also included on the album “Buuniki Kaesu!!” Its structure is captivating, shifting from a poppy, exhilarating mood to overwhelmingly massive sections.
It’s a must-listen not only for fans of heavy music, but also for anyone looking to savor that liberating summer feeling!
Claw Claw ClawMakishimamu Za Horumon
This song is included on the single “Tsumetometotsume/‘F’,” released in July 2008.
It reached No.
2 on the Oricon chart and stayed ranked for 47 weeks.
Known for its aggressive yet catchy sound, it’s also very popular live.
The song delves into the darker sides of society and humanity, featuring provocative lyrics.
Highly recommended for fans of metal and hardcore punk!
Burst back to life!!Makishimamu Za Horumon
The lead track included as the first song on the 2007 release “Buiikikaesu.” It’s a fan favorite among Hormone listeners and a staple at their live shows.
It’s moderately loud, easy to get into, and unleashes a storm of headbanging.
The song’s tagline—“Get killed by Buiikikaesu.”—was extreme yet brilliant.
This track also features Nao’s vocals, which make the chorus smoothly accessible, turning it into a deeply meaningful song I’d recommend even to people who aren’t fond of Hormone.
「F」Makishimamu Za Horumon
In this song themed around Dragon Ball’s Frieza, Maximum the Hormone’s unique worldview explodes onto the scene! The lyrics capture Frieza’s cold-blooded nature and power, while the intense sound—skillfully blending elements of loud rock, hardcore punk, and metal—leaves a strong impression.
Released in July 2008, the track gained attention when it was used as the battle song in the 2015 film Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection “F.” It’s also fascinating that Akira Toriyama reportedly came up with the idea to revive Frieza in the movie after being inspired by this song.
It’s a must-listen not only for Maximum the Hormone fans but also for anime lovers!
stainMakishimamu Za Horumon
This track, included on the classic 2007 release “Bubbling Resuscitation,” is one of their signature songs.
Its lyrics, themed around souls, grudges, and the afterlife, powerfully portray the anguish surrounding life and death, leaving a deep impression on listeners.
The song weaves melodious passages into its intensity, embodying the band’s musical identity.
It’s a highly recommended track when you want to blow away a heavy mood.
Killer Intent vs Killer Intent (Accomplice: Toma Ikuta)Makishimamu Za Horumon
Characterized by the heavy guitar riffs and complex rhythmic development that are quintessential Maximum the Hormone, this track was included on the single “Ki-Se-I Rush,” released in June 2024, and was also chosen as the theme song for the film Confession.
Another noteworthy point is the participation of Toma Ikuta—who stars in the film and has publicly declared himself a fan of Maximum the Hormone—as a guest vocalist.
It’s the perfect song for those moments when you want to vent anger or pain and are seeking intense music that hits you right in the heart.
Love in AmericaMakishimamu Za Horumon
This song by Maximum the Hormone was released in July 2023 as their first new work in about five years! Just like the title suggests, it kicks off with a refreshing guitar riff that evokes American rock bands.
But then it shifts into a heavy sound with piercing, screamed rap—truly the essence of what they do best.
This track embodies “Hormone-style stadium rock,” and you can easily imagine how wild it gets live.
If you need an energy boost from music, this song will crank your spirits up a hundredfold, no question!
