STRAIGHTENER – “ROCKSTEADY” (from the new live DVD “ETERNAL ROCK BAND -21st CENTURY ROCK BAND TOUR 2013-”)

Straightener is a rock band that’s gained popularity for their soulful vocals.

The track “ROCK END ROLL” is included on their first mini-album.

Interestingly, this song was also featured on an album from their indie days, but the members said they weren’t satisfied with how it turned out back then and decided to re-record it.

The lyrics of this version put a strong emphasis on their love for band life and the fun of making music.

It’s an upbeat, catchy tune—if you sing it, everyone’s bound to get into it.

BRAND NEW EVERYTHINGsutoreitenaa9rank/position

BRAND NEW EVERYTHING / STRAIGHTENER

A song included on Straightener’s 2012 single “From Noon Till Dawn.” It sings about the idea that, unless we pay attention, we might miss the small freedoms hidden in our everyday lives.

It’s a striking track that makes you realize the happiness and freedom that we often take for granted.

REMINDERsutoreitenaa10rank/position

Straightener – REMINDER

With the spread of the iPhone, reminders have also become mainstream, and they’re such a useful tool, aren’t they? They help prevent us from forgetting things.

By the way, what do you think about the idea that music can serve as an emotional reminder? The music we listened to in our teens can bring back the feelings we had at the time.

It’s a very bittersweet song.

Straightener – Lightning

“Lightning” sings about the void in the heart that remains unfilled even as time passes after losing someone important.

It’s a song released in 2009 by the rock band Straightener.

Among their tracks, this one is relatively subdued and carries a stronger sense of melancholy.

The English lines convey the meaning: “Strike me with lightning so I can return to the world where you are.” The sound, though sad, somehow feels warm—much like quiet tears that flow when loneliness sets in.

Skeletonize!sutoreitenaa12rank/position

STRAIGHTENER – Skeletonize!

Straightener is a band that has been active for many years with a sound rooted in alternative and indie rock.

They’ve produced numerous classics, but one I especially recommend is “Skeletonize!” This track is a hard-hitting rock number with a loud, consolidated sound.

That said, its overall vocal range is relatively narrow, and even the one higher section doesn’t require using mixed voice.

Most men with an average vocal range should be able to sing it without issue.

STRAIGHTENER – Spiral

If you’re looking to enjoy a tenor sound that captures the refreshing breeze of summer, we recommend Straightener’s “Spiral.” Released digitally in 2019, this song was written specifically for a live show held in Makuhari.

Its cool, breezy melody makes it perfect for a summer drive.

When you lose sight of where you are and what you want to do next—if someone important is by your side, it feels like you can stand in the future you once envisioned and keep going.

You can push yourself because there’s someone precious to you.

This is a song that brings out that feeling and gives you the courage to rise again.

COME and GOsutoreitenaa14rank/position

Straightener – COME and GO

Straightener’s track delicately portrays the act of facing loneliness and inner conflict, delivering a powerful message that gives you the courage to move forward.

Its modern atmosphere, crafted through skillful use of synths, strikes a perfect balance with its edgy sound.

Released in August 2024, the song was also chosen as the ending theme for the sequel drama adaptation of the film Golden Kamuy, fully expressing that world’s essence.

It’s perfect not only for rock fans but also for those who resonate with introspective lyrics.

This is a significant song that opens a new chapter in Straightener’s career.
