Unzipped SiegriedMizutama Shōbōdan44rank/position

Mizutama Fire Brigade – Unzipped Siegfried

A new wave band that emerged and thrived in the early ’80s.

Their radically fresh approach—most members were beginners on their instruments and they built songs by switching parts—made their style uniquely distinctive and exhilarating.

“Unzipped Siegried” is a track with a distinctly hard-edged feel.

After School Tea TimeCagayake!GIRLS45rank/position

Cagayake!GIRLS

The opening theme of the hugely popular TV anime “K-On!”.

It reached No.

4 on the Weekly Oricon Chart and, along with the ending theme “Don’t say ‘lazy’” released the same day, is extremely popular.

The lead vocal is by Aki Toyosaki, who plays Yui Hirasawa.

The cute vocals and poppy melody make it a joy to listen to.

The lyrics evoke the original manga and the anime itself, but it’s a song I can recommend even to those who haven’t seen the show.

[Accent] Challenging a band performance of SCANDAL’s “Shunkan Sentimental”! (Elementary school girls’ band)

Accent is a girls’ band formed by elementary school girls who had each been doing music activities on YouTube.

This cover of SCANDAL’s “Shunkan Sentimental” showcases performance skills you wouldn’t expect from elementary schoolers—especially the drummer’s rock-solid stability.

It’s a band to look forward to from here on out.

The way homeAnarchy Stone47rank/position

“Kaerimichi” PV - ANARCHY STONE

Included on the 2009 album “ANARCHY STONE.” A three-piece girls’ band from Chiba Prefecture formed in 2000.

Hard and noisy, yet with a melody forged by mellow guitars and powerful drums, topped with soulful vocals, the result is a richly emotional track.

My SongBabysitter48rank/position

BabySitter – My Song (Music Video)

The girls’ pop band BabySitter’s song “Boku no Uta” is a track that lifts people’s spirits and helps them look forward.

We all sometimes feel a sense of emptiness or wonder, “What am I living for?”—perhaps you, too, have had those nights when you sink into deep gloom and overthink things.

This song seems to speak for those feelings, and it will likely resonate especially with anyone feeling down after a breakup.

It’s a song that helps you take the next step forward.

CASPA 'Ride on a Unicorn' Music Video

Casper is a band formed in 2015.

With Yuta Yasuno of HAWAIIAN6 as their producer, their songs have taken on an even stronger rock edge and become cooler.

Their music is so rock-driven that you wouldn’t think they’re a girls’ band, and their energetic lyrics make for an inspiring anthem.
