A three-piece rock band formed in Nagasaki in 2004.

SHANK Popular Song Rankings [2026] (41–50)
SubmarineSHANK46rank/position

It’s a really short song, but it still carries their signature vibe—a comfortable punk sound.
I’m sure they have plenty of followers.
They’re a three-piece male band with a wide range, and they have various albums, so I’m curious how much of that their fans actually know.
Sunset storySHANK47rank/position

From an intro so cool it makes you think you could listen to just that forever, to a song structure that screams “melodic hardcore,” this is SHANK at their finest.
Packed with tight hits and simply put—it’s awesome.
Definitely give it a listen!
TAKE ME BACKSHANK48rank/position

I think it’s a track where the brisk, offbeat guitar backing pairs brilliantly with the lead guitar’s powerful impact.
It’s rare to find a song that leaves such a strong impression in just two minutes.
Definitely one you should listen to.
TOP WATERSHANK49rank/position

This song races by and is over in just about a minute.
It’s extremely aggressive and edgy, with a cool, melodic hardcore-style burst of speed.
I can picture kids at a live show forming a circle and running counterclockwise.
The One Second FutureSHANK50rank/position

An insanely cool intro! Personally, a lot of melodic hardcore bands’ songs end up sounding the same to me, but SHANK manages to avoid that—that’s what I think is amazing about them.
The chord progression is actually a pretty common one, but the song still clearly has SHANK’s distinct flavor.
I think it’s a great track.
