The Dresscodes Popular Song Ranking [2026]
Last updated:

The Dresscodes is a band formed in 2012, centered around Ryohei Shima, the former frontman of the band Mary's (formerly Kegawa no Maries).

Since 2014, they have stopped performing as a fixed four-member group and have continued their musical activities in a format similar to a solo project, with Ryohei Shima collaborating with different artists each time.

This time, we’ll introduce a ranking of popular songs by the Dresscodes.

Dresscodes Popular Songs Ranking [2026] (1–10)

A catchy piece that makes you think, “Maybe being selfish is what makes you who you are.” It closes out their third album, ‘1,’ released in 2014.

The groove-heavy arrangement built around a four-on-the-floor beat is incredibly easy on the ears—your body starts swaying before you know it.

And the lyric “Love is a lie!” carries a message that’s so quintessentially Shima.

This full-throttle sense of self, this freedom—that’s exactly what The Dresscodes are all about.

This song, whose opening features an impressive poetry-reading style aligned with a drum beat, is the first track on their second album, Bande Dessinée, released in 2013.

Once it moves into the A section, a catchy and comfortable melody unfolds, carried by Shima’s husky vocals alongside guitar sounds reminiscent of classic rock—their signature charm.

The lyrics contain messages that can be read as Shima’s perspective on life as well as advice to young people.

Because the message is easy to connect with for anyone, I recommend listening while following along with the lyrics.

GhostDoresukōzu3rank/position

The dresscodes are a rock band that expresses music from every angle.

“Ghost,” included on their 2014 release Hippies E.P., is a track where airy synth sounds and guitar rock match beautifully.

Ryohei Shima’s sweet, gentle voice resonates with the heart.

The lyrics, which depict a pure heart, are filled with honest feelings.

If you like melodic tracks from the US or UK, give it a listen! Their unique sound will captivate you.

This song, included on the first album “the dresscodes” released in 2012, is one of the signature tracks of the early dresscodes.

Unlike the classic rock ’n’ roll flavor of the Kegawa no Maries era and other early dresscodes songs, it feels more like an intensely impulsive wall-of-sound rock.

In live performances, it was sometimes played at a faster tempo, resulting in an even more spontaneous and energetic performance.

When your heart feels restless, you want to blow off steam with impulsive music, don’t you? “Kono Akumame,” included on the dresscodes’ 2014 release “1,” is an emotional track filled with a sense of speed.

Its up-tempo, fast-unfolding sound would definitely boost your energy when heard live! If you like philosophical punk rock like THE BLUE HEARTS, give it a listen.

The groove, momentum, and beautiful melodies will resonate with your heart.

It’s a punchy rock tune with a punkish vibe! It’s included on their second album, “Bande Dessinée,” released in 2013.

Crackling, distorted guitar tones, powerful drumming, and Shima’s husky vocals—every slice of it is cool.

The slightly bittersweet lyrics, likening a greedy self to a thief, are also captivating.

In just about two minutes, the Dresscodes’ musical essence is packed in tight.

This is a work that cuts into a modern society where we can’t help but become faceless.

Released in 2017, it’s the seventh track on the fifth album, “Heibon” (Ordinary).

Centered around a band sound, the slightly retro-tinged sonics resonate with a cool vibe.

And of course, the biggest highlight is the lyrics, isn’t it? They carry a unique atmosphere, but in truth, they really make you think about “the existence of the self.” Be sure to check it out along with the music video, which faithfully captures the song’s worldview.
