MY FIRST STORY's famous songs and recommended popular tracks

Let me introduce some songs by MY FIRST STORY, a band active in the loud rock scene with roots in emo and screamo.

Their exceptional vocals, visuals, and cool songwriting are all outstanding, and it’s easy to see why they’re so popular.

As many of you may know, the vocalist Hiro is the younger brother of ONE OK ROCK’s vocalist Taka, and the son of enka singers Shinichi Mori and Masako Mori.

Some people say he benefits from his parents’ and brother’s fame, but even without that, I believe they’re a band with the talent to earn popularity on their own.

The coupling track to the single “alone.” It’s a warm yet bittersweet song.

Even the subtle sounds—like the door as the recording begins and the chair as someone sits—were captured, giving it a uniquely atmospheric feel.

It’s said to have been crafted right there in a studio unlike any other.

A track included on the first mini album “ALL LEAD TRACKS.” It’s an original song written for a game, with lyrics that align with the game’s content and even use gaming terminology, making it an addictive tune you’ll want to replay.

The seemingly meaningful ending of the music video also piques curiosity.

With recent collaborations with artists like HYDE, the rock band MY FIRST STORY has been gaining even more momentum.

They’re known for a hard style that’s essentially hard rock with a touch of heavy metal.

Among their songs, the one I especially recommend is their new track, “Merry-Go-Round.” It features a nostalgic tone with a hint of kayōkyoku (Japanese pop) essence.

The vocal line is simple, and the death-voice parts are used as chorus rather than the main vocal line, so even those who can’t do death vocals can sing it without any problem.

Set against the backdrop of midnight Tokyo, this MY FIRST STORY track poignantly portrays the yearning of people seeking love.

Powerful vocals and a driving, exhilarating melody vividly capture both the city’s hustle and its solitude.

Released digitally in May 2023 as the fifth installment of their 12-month consecutive release project, the song holds special meaning as it commemorates the band’s 10th anniversary.

It’s perfect for sleepless nights, late-night drives, or moments of deep focus.

Warm and encouraging, the track gently supports those who carry complex emotions deep inside yet continue to face forward and live on.

This song features MY FIRST STORY and nano.

I love nano because they have powerful vocals and a beautiful voice.

It seems that nano and Hiro, the vocalist of MY FIRST STORY, are close friends in private life as well.

A track included on their third album, “Kyo-gen NEUROSE.” It’s a cool song where the guitar and drums kick in after a quiet intro, and the transition from whispery vocals to shouts is awesome.

The lyrics are also something many people can relate to, so I highly recommend it.

This is a track from their fourth standout album, “ANTITHESE.” It’s another song that showcases the new lineup’s sound, with fresh elements in the guitar and drums.

The lyrics are carefully chosen, and the matured vocal delivery conveys Hiro’s anxiety, pain, and uncertainty, making this a noteworthy piece.
