Hi-STANDARD – ENDLESS TRIP

This song, with lyrics that liken life to a journey, is one of Hi-STANDARD’s finest and hits you right in the heart.

When they sing it, the “trip” described in the lyrics feels like their musical journey itself, doesn’t it? Of course, it’s also perfect to listen to as you set off on your own journey, literally.

Through traveling you’ll meet all kinds of people, and by the time this trip ends, something inside you will surely have changed.

Listening to this song will make you believe that.

Green Acres

It sings about those contradictory feelings of loving the city yet yearning for the countryside.

This track is included on the classic album “MAKING THE ROAD,” released in June 1999 and selling over 600,000 copies, and serves as a kind of palate cleanser within the album.

Doesn’t its laid-back vibe naturally bring a smile to your face? It’s a number I’d love you to listen to when city life starts to feel a bit stifling.

Happy Xmas(War Is Over)

This is a track where Hi-STANDARD covers one of the world’s most beloved Christmas songs with a punk arrangement.

They reconstruct the original’s gentle prayer for peace with a driving band sound and beautiful choral work that draws you in.

The message wishing for a future without conflict resonates even more powerfully as it overlaps with their energetic performance.

Originally included on the 7-inch single “WAR IS OVER” in 1997, it was released on CD in December 2016 on the cover EP “Vintage & New, Gift Shits.” It’s the perfect song when you’re in the mood for a punk Christmas tune.

Hello My Junior

This is a track from the classic album THE GIFT, released in October 2017.

It’s a thrilling punk rock number bursting with Hi-Standard’s signature style, packing an exhilarating, fast-paced sound into under two minutes, and lyrics like “Move by instinct, not logic” that really hit home.

The song also features the comical chorus that’s a staple at their live shows, making you want to sing along without thinking.

When you listen to it at times when overthinking keeps you from taking a step forward, it gives you so much energy that your worries start to feel ridiculous.

I highly recommend it as the perfect spark to boost your mood.

Hi-Standard – I Get Around (Punk Cover)

This is a cover by Hi-Standard, a band representing Japanese melodic hardcore and melodic punk, of a song by The Beach Boys.

You might expect them to stick with the fresh surf vibe, but as expected, the chorus kicks into a high-speed beat—what you could call their signature Hi-Sta style—making it a characteristically Hi-Standard cover that ramps up the energy.

Packed into this song is an extremely direct and powerful message: don’t be swayed by the media or other people’s voices—stick to your own style.

Compared to their other tracks, its sound condenses a hardcore rush and energy that pounds your eardrums.

When you’re on the verge of losing yourself by worrying about others’ eyes, this detonator of a number will blow away your doubts and give you a strong push forward.

Hi-standard【KISS ME AGAIN】

It’s a heartwarming classic that opens with an unforgettable guitar riff.

“If I grow old and my appearance changes completely, will you still love me the same?” It expresses that slightly anxious yet straightforward question.

It’s filled with a pure, pure wish to “stay by my side forever.” Their unique charm lies in setting such innocent, earnest feelings to a fast-paced, melodic punk sound.

This track appears on the masterpiece Growing Up, released in November 1995.

It’s a song for everyone who, when thinking about the future with someone special, wants to believe in an unchanging love.
