BUCK-TICK Popular Songs Ranking [2026] (11–20)
MiuBUCK-TICK15rank/position

The 13th single released in 1999.
Its dark, laid-back progression, marked by acoustic guitar, is rendered with a heavy, venomous feel.
The title “Miu” apparently has no clear meaning, and what it evokes likely varies from person to person.
The world is filled with darkness.BUCK-TICK16rank/position

A track included on the album “Or, Anarchy,” created around various avant-garde art themes.
It also carries the message that depending on how one perceives it, the meaning of darkness can change significantly—whether it evokes negative images like “anxiety,” or, including that, the unknown “possibility.”

When you’re feeling down or sad, some people may want to listen to songs with even more heartrending themes.
In that case, I’d like to introduce “Taiyou ni Korosareta.” This is a track released in 1991 by the visual kei rock band BUCK-TICK.
It begins with an intro that samples the sound of bells, resulting in an unsettling melody.
The lyrics sing of despair and sorrow in life.
However, in the latter half, the tempo gradually picks up and the vocals grow more powerful.
Consider what meaning might be embedded in that shift.

My first impression when I listened to this song was that it’s classic, straight-ahead rock.
The guitar tone feels similar to THE BACK HORN.
The vocalist’s clinging, entwining voice is so distinctive that once you get hooked, it could become addictive.
The slight touch of an oldies vibe also makes it a really nice track.
Show-stopping beautyBUCK-TICK19rank/position

The 29th single, released in 2010.
The four-on-the-floor drums are very striking, and while the song’s overall style follows BUCK-TICK’s classic lineage, it feels like it incorporates the popular beats of the 2010s.
A track that conveys their relentless, ever-evolving drive.
SpeedBUCK-TICK20rank/position

In the process of working toward a goal, there will be times when you need to pick up speed.
This song is perfect for those moments.
Even during crunch time, when you might start to feel rushed, it lifts your spirits and puts you in the mood to dash through with a bright outlook.
Honestly, I really think good music is like a supplement you take in through your ears.

…IN HEAVEN…BUCK-TICK21rank/position

Although it was released in 1988, it remains one of the staple songs still performed live today.
Created during their shift toward a darker style, it takes “double suicide” as its theme, making it a track that foreshadows what would become their signature sound.
It’s an upbeat 8-beat tune and perfect for training a drummer’s right hand!
