Lullaby of Hellinugami saakasu dan2rank/position

Lullaby of Hell – Inugami Circus-dan × Hino Hideshi

A song by the rock band Inugami Circus-dan, who have been active under the name “Inugami Saakasu-dan” since 2012.

It’s a track characteristic of a band that has pursued the ancient role of songs—giving voice to things that can’t be openly spoken—delivering eerie lyrics over a heavy, imposing sound.

The somewhat retro feel in the melody and chord progressions further deepens its distinctive world, giving it a strange allure that keeps you listening to the end even as it feels frightening.

Amid the dark atmosphere, you can sense a fierce, distorted love and madness.

Inugami Circus-dan “The Last Idol” (Music Video)

Set to a fiercely fast-paced sound, the song celebrates the brave figures of boys and girls determined to forge their own era.

The nostalgic guitar riffs with a Showa-era flavor, the powerful lead vocals, and the rugged, intertwining chorus all sound incredibly cool.

Inugami Circus-dan “Requiem” (Music Video)

Inugami Circus-dan’s song “Requiem” is a masterpiece noted for its profoundly somber atmosphere and rich, resonant piano.

Released in 2003, this track represents the band at their best, embodying Japanese-style horror entertainment.

Though it evokes a sense of utter hopelessness, many listeners will find themselves drawn into its dark, deep melodies.

It’s a dark number perfect for solo karaoke—sing it while picturing the scenes painted by the lyrics, which, though fictional, convey a striking sense of reality.

Inugami Circus-dan “Convenient Woman” (MV)

The band Inugami Circus-dan tends to be treated as a novelty act because of their visuals.

Many of their song titles are eerie, and this one is, quite literally, titled “Convenient Woman.” The lyrics are consistently dramatic: you think it’s a typical love story, but then comes a sudden twist—the partner is actually married, and the protagonist has been deceived! There must be more than a few people who’ve experienced a romance like this; surely they’d feel their emotions boil over with anger and resentment, just like the song’s protagonist.

Early Inugami circus dan

If you’re eating, please listen to this song “Gaki” after your meal.

If you play it while eating, you’ll feel sick and put your chopsticks down.

The lyrics are terrifying, and it’s a song that could be called the most grotesque in Japan.

The rock band performing it, Inugami Circus-dan (now Inugami Circus-dan with an alternate stylization), was formed in 1994 when the vocalist, Kyouko—who was a high school student at the time—recruited members through a pen-pal section in a manga magazine.

They’re still active today.

The group excels at creating songs that convey a palpable sense of fear.

Silly talk

It’s a song about a girl who accidentally witnesses something she shouldn’t have involving her parents.

The jazzy rhythm is stylish and cool, and the contrast with the chuckle-inducing lyrics is really entertaining.

The vocalist’s confident, commanding performance is another highlight.
