SHISHAMO 'Milk Coffee' (Audio)

SHISHAMO is a rock band that has gained popularity for lyrics that vividly paint scenes and for a distinctive three-piece sound that’s simple yet solid at its core.

“Milk Coffee,” included on their first digital-only EP, Boots wo Narashite, features a stylish blend of delicate yet tight ensemble work.

Its sentimental lyrics, which evoke memories of seasons spent with a lover, combine with the winter atmosphere to stir a sense of nostalgia.

A hidden gem among winter songs, the track is memorable for the wistfulness that permeates it.

MetroSHISHAMO66rank/position

Metro / SHISHAMO - Tried playing it on guitar

It portrays the bittersweet feeling of remembering the “you” I broke up with whenever I ride the metro.

The way the protagonist struggles to become strong enough to ride the metro without thinking of “you” is deeply moving.

I think most people have experienced a love they can’t forget.

This is a song that gently accompanies those feelings.

The video is a digest of the album; it appears as the eighth track.

Girls in the CourtyardSHISHAMO67rank/position

SHISHAMO “Girls in the Courtyard”

This song portrays the feeling of suddenly getting anxious about the future, even while having fun with friends.

It reflects on whether we can stay the same, even if we leave school and can no longer gather in our “usual courtyard.” That contemplative mood carries a nostalgic poignancy that anyone can relate to.

SHISHAMO Holiday - Tried playing it on guitar

While the spring “Golden Week” consists of a string of weekends and national holidays, in recent years the late-September stretch of consecutive weekends and holidays has come to be called “Silver Week.” Either way, they’re great breaks for students and office workers.

Speaking of holidays, this song “Kyūjitsu” (Holiday) comes to mind.

Its lyrics—about “spending a long, solitary holiday while reminiscing about a romance that has ended”—are a bit lonely yet somehow comical.

It’s a recommended track for anyone who wants to take it easy over Golden Week.

By the way, when the band SHISHAMO first started, they used the kanji spelling 柳葉魚 for their name—still pronounced "Shishamo."

Full-Power BoySHISHAMO69rank/position

The best boy

Among the tracks on the tribute album “Minna no Sukima Switch,” one of the most talked-about is surely SHISHAMO’s cover of “Zenryoku Shounen.” While preserving the original vibe, it’s been turned into an energetic, pop sound that’s distinctly SHISHAMO.

The lyrics, which sing of the strength and hope to climb back up from rock bottom, are truly uplifting.

When you’re down or troubled, this song spurs you on, resonating with a wide range of listeners!

Things between you and meSHISHAMO70rank/position

SHISHAMO - Played “Kimi to no Koto” on guitar

A distinctive feature of SHISHAMO’s songs is their narrative quality, and this track is literally a story.

The lyrics describe someone who has been with “Leila” for a long time but has a true love elsewhere and is trying to go back to that person.

There’s nothing wrong with “Leila”; from the way the singer keeps telling themselves that everything is their fault, you can feel that, even while knowing it’s unforgivable, they still cherish her.

Since there’s no official music video, this is a play-through/performance video.
