ELLEGARDEN「Salamander」Music Video

ELLEGARDEN’s “Salamander” was released as a single in 2006 and is also included on the album ELEVEN FIRE CRACKERS.

The vocals unfold from a flat, almost spoken delivery into a chorus that mixes in higher notes, and the powerful sound that overlaps with this progression conveys a strong sense of momentum.

The overall sonic atmosphere also feels energetic, with a playing style that emphasizes a rough, forceful intensity, which is a key appeal.

Strongly accentuating the choppy guitar at the beginning may also be a point that boosts the drive of the entire track.

Ellegarden Space Sonic Lyrics

This is the fifth single by ELLEGARDEN, a four-piece rock band that announced their return to activity in 2018 after roughly a decade and continues to influence many rock bands today.

Even though the lyrics are entirely in English, it was used as opening themes for variety and radio shows, evoking the 2000s music scene when more bands were breaking into international markets.

The beat and arrangement shift rapidly before driving into a high-velocity chorus, and the cool melody—precisely because it’s in English—is sure to get rock fans fired up.

With its catchy tune and exhilarating pace, it’s a quintessential ELLEGARDEN number that’s hard to resist.

ELLEGARDEN – Santa Claus LIVE 2003 [ENG SUB] (7/14)

Released in 2002, “Santa Claus” is a track with ELLEGARDEN’s signature band rock and guitar-driven sound, layered with a touch of bittersweetness.

The melody is very simple and easy to remember, and it’s clear where the song peaks.

The overall vocal range is C#3 to B4, and in the chorus where the pitch rises a bit, if you move with the groove while listening to the drums, it feels great to sing! Also, the song begins with vocals over the guitar—almost a cappella.

After that it shifts fully into a powerful band sound, so singing clearly with strong contrast will really bring out the song’s appeal.

If you like band-oriented rock, definitely get pumped up with ELLEGARDEN!
