Worker MKinniku Shoujo Tai11rank/position

Muscle Girl Band — Worker M (with detailed lyrics)

A sharp-edged number from Kinniku Shōjo-tai, a band that has been at the forefront of Japan’s rock scene since the late 1980s.

The intro, which evokes the opening of a horror film, might be a bit scary to listen to alone at night!? The lyrics by vocalist Kenji Otsuki—who’s also active as a writer and essayist—are truly distinctive.

They fiercely reject every value system and all material wealth, to the point of making you wonder, “Is there any meaning in working?”—yet still manage to slip in moments that make you chuckle.

It’s a track I’d especially like young office workers to hear.

After a period of inactivity, Kinniku Shōjo-tai resumed their activities in 2006.

We’ll be keeping a close eye on what they do next!

Chiisana Koino Melody

This work by Musume Shōjo-tai may seem like a simple love song at first glance, but it carries a profound message.

While depicting the fragility of youth and the process of growing up, it powerfully sings of overcoming life’s hardships.

It was also used as the opening theme for the anime EAT-MAN and captured the hearts of many.

Blending rock and pop, it combines the band’s characteristic humorous lyrics with energetic performance.

It’s a recommended track for those feeling lost in life or nostalgic for their youth.

Muscle Girl Band/This Is Fine (Official Music Video)

This is an unusual work that fuses the heavy metal and pop of Kinniku Shōjo Tai.

Through the story of a protagonist who spends a long 13 years in prison for a crime they didn’t commit, it sharply portrays the deep conflicts and contradictions of the human condition.

Included on the album “Neko no Tebukuro,” it was released in July 1989 and was also used as a commercial song for Shōnen Publishing’s magazine “Monthly On Stage.” Recommended as a track that speaks to the heart when you’re at a crossroads in life or facing unreasonable circumstances.

It’s an intense song, but it might prompt you to take a fresh look at your life.

This song was written when Kenji Ohtsuki of Musume Shōjo-tai (Muscle Girl Band) and guitarist Fumihiko Kitsutaka were really fighting, quit the band, and then made up.

But if you look at the lyrics, there are lots of things that could just as well happen between lovers.

After a fight, it might be nice to listen to such an upbeat track and laugh it off when you make up.

It became a hot topic when it was used as a commercial song for the soft drink “CHEERIO.” The uniquely undulating guitar riff and vocalist Kenji Otsuki’s conversational singing style are addictive.

It’s a rich, intense track that seems to waft a spicy aroma just by listening.

It reached 20th place on the Oricon daily chart.

It comically sings about the anxiety of feeling like the people around you are laughing at you.

The guitar riff and melody carry a nostalgic vibe with a hint of the Showa era, and some listeners may find themselves relating to the self-deprecating lyrics.

The Weekly Changing Myth of MiraclesKinniku Shoujo Tai19rank/position

The power and mystique of metal are drawn out to the extreme.

Amid many songs with strong idiosyncrasies, this one maintains a miraculous balance.

It’s no exaggeration to say you can’t talk about the scene of the time without having heard this.
