SiM Popular Song Ranking [2026]

DiAMONDSiM31rank/position

SiM – DiAMOND (OFFICIAL VIDEO)

When it comes to songs with a sense of speed, you can’t leave out rock bands! Among them, the top recommendation for sheer momentum is SiM.

They call themselves reggae punk, and their tracks are all brimming with drive, plus their melodious vocal lines are a huge draw.

The balance between hardcore intensity and catchiness is exquisite.

In this song too, the heavily distorted guitar sound, catchy melodies enhanced by vocal effects, and the ever-shifting song structure are overflowing with a sense of speed.

Evolution is SolutionSiM32rank/position

I tried playing SiM’s Evolution is Solution on bass.

From the 2nd mini album “LiFE and DEATH,” released in May 2012.

This is a quintessential “The SiM” track.

The intro’s metal phrasing gives way to a drastically shifted vibe in the A melody, followed by a straightforward, sing-along-friendly chorus.

It’s so comfortable you’ll find yourself listening straight through to the end.

Faster Than The ClockSiM33rank/position

SiM / Faster Than The Clock - Tried playing it on bass

From their second full album, SEEDS OF HOPE, released in October 2011.

It’s a live-ready track that shifts from a high-speed two-beat to a heavy, reggae-flavored A section, with a part where you can do two-step as well.

The guitar riff played with tapping (light-hand technique), ringing out from the intro, is especially striking.

Get Up, Get UpSiM34rank/position

I tried playing Get up, Get up on SiM’s guitar.

From the 2nd mini-album “LiFE and DEATH,” released in May 2012.

Also featured on “VANS COMPILATION LOUD SESSION!!! VANS×BANDS 2,” released in March 2012, it opens the mini-album with a distinctive intro packed with gritty, brutal hardcore riffs.

The chorus then shifts into a groove driven primarily by a reggae-style swing.

The fusion of these contrasting elements blends together in a strikingly cool way.

I HATE U (It’s Not A Play On Words)SiM35rank/position

SiM – I HATE U (It’s Not A Play On Word) (Bass cover)

From the 2nd full album “SEEDS OF HOPE,” released in October 2011.

As the title suggests, it’s a track bursting with explosive anger, intense lyrics, and a sing-along of “Fxxk you!! Fxxk you!!” in the chorus that creates a strong sense of unity at live shows.

Crossfaith’s vocalist Koie also joins this song with his shouts.

MurdererSiM36rank/position

SiM – Murderer (Bass Cover)

From the 2nd full album “SEEDS OF HOPE,” released in October 2011.

A re-recorded version of the song of the same name included on the 2nd single “Murderer,” released in March 2009.

It’s a track where heavy, headbanging riffs and reggae’s characteristic laid-back groove take turns stepping forward, blending beautifully and sparking a chemical reaction.

RiOTSiM37rank/position

SiM – RiOT (Official Video)

From the 3rd mini-album “i AGAINST i,” released in September 2014.

This track opens the album.

Its standout feature is the intro, where a pop melody rides over a guitar with irregular bending phrases.

The chorus riff, with its heavy rock/nu-metal style phrasing, can be seen as an antithesis to today’s loud rock scene.

Same SkySiM38rank/position

SiM – Same Sky (OFFICIAL VIDEO)

From the 4th single “EViLS,” released in April 2013.

A ballad with such a strong presence that calling it a B-side hardly seems fitting.

Though they champion reggae-punk, their other weapon is message-driven ballads delivered with conviction.

This track could be said to embody that.

It was also the first song in which they adopted Japanese lyrics.

Set me freeSiM39rank/position

SIM “Set Me Free” 40oz to Freedom @Spark 10/05/2009

From the 1st full album “Silence iz Mine,” released in June 2008.

A reggae-influenced track representative of early SiM.

Nowadays, it’s often performed in the Refined ver.

included on the 2nd single “Murderer,” released in March 2009.

That version features a louder rock arrangement, with additions like a beatdown, making it even heavier.

Incidentally, the album title reflects the origin of SiM’s band name, meaning “Silence is mine.”

The Sound Of BreathSiM40rank/position

SiM – The Sound Of Breath (OFFICIAL VIDEO)

This is a classic Japanese rock song by SiM, a rising act that’s gaining a devoted following thanks to their cutting-edge sound style and hybrid artistry.

Their reliability in winning over hardcore fans is unquestionable—give it a listen!
