SHANK Popular Songs Ranking [2026]

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

The origin of the band’s name comes from when they initially played ska-punk and called themselves “SKANK” (SKA + PUNK), but drummer Yuki Ikemoto misread it as “SHANK,” and the name stuck.

Here’s a ranking of some of their most emotional and popular songs!

SHANK Popular Songs Ranking [2026] (11–20)

Prayer’s handSHANK15rank/position

The album “From tiny square room” features slow to mid-tempo tracks, so there isn’t much of a sense of speed, but that makes the solid, weighty instrumentation stand out and really highlights the vocalist’s beautiful voice.

It’s the kind of song that might make you tear up if you hear it at a festival.

This track, the second on the album ‘Tiny Square Room,’ is packed with sharp hits and is simply awesome! It’s guaranteed to get us pumped when we play it ourselves.

If you’re looking for a song that will fire up your live show, this is it!

Baitfish AttitudeSHANK17rank/position

I feel like this song, the album’s title track, carries some kind of central image.

It’s not something you can say about all punk rock, but this band seems to have a lot of really powerful songs packed into short lengths.

Punk rock is the best on guitar.

Brandnew SongSHANK18rank/position

A punkish track that’s very SHANK, included as the sixth song on their 3rd album “BAiTFiSH Attitude.” It’s a fast-tempo, dynamic number that makes you want to mosh and dive at a live show.

Bright SideSHANK19rank/position

This track by SHANK, a band based in Nagasaki, released in August 2020, was born from a small everyday event—moving into a poorly lit room.

It distills the longing to return from a space shut in darkness to a place touched by light into high-velocity melodic punk.

The song was included on the Candy Cruise EP released in September of the same year, and was re-released on the 2022 album STEADY.

It shines with Shohei Ihara’s lyricism, which elevates minor frustrations into universal themes, and with an expansive guitar sound anchored by tight drumming.

They’re pounding out power chords and clashing images against each other.

Maybe the tempo is fast, because it feels like it ends quickly.

You could say that very sense of speed is the best thing about this track.

Come TogetherSHANK21rank/position

Featured on the 2013 album “Baitfish Attitude,” this track is a melodic punk number that distills SHANK’s signature speed and pop sensibility.

It carries a powerful message: even when difficulties pour down like rain, join hands with your friends and move forward without fear.

While acknowledging anxiety and hesitation—and even embracing them as something “fun”—the song inspires the courage to step into new days, giving a push to anyone sprinting through their youth.

Shohei Ihara’s soaring vocals and the tight ensemble create a stunning sense of unity.

It’s a must-listen when you’re about to take on a challenge with your crew.
