RIZE’s classic and popular songs (51–60)
MUSICRIZE
Released in 2001, this is the title track of their third single, following Kaminari and Why I’m Me.
It features tribal drumming and a catchy riff that’s neither too heavy nor too light.
The highlight of the song is, without a doubt, the bass solo.
Both the original bassist TOKIE and the current bassist KenKen bring their own unique flavor to it.
RIZERIZE
This song bears the band’s name as its title.
It tells the band’s history: meeting drummer Nobuaki Kaneko in childhood, forming the band, going through member changes, and singing, “Let’s keep doing this together.” The laid-back, groove-heavy rhythm makes it a very satisfying track.
TKCRIZE
It’s a track that kicks off with a crisp, energetic intro and explodes with a uniquely surreal lyrical world.
The recurring, heavy, and ominous bassline is highly addictive—you’ll find yourself playing it on repeat.
The music video, brimming with psychedelic color, is also a must-see.
Television SongRIZE
It’s a strongly messaged song that satirically likens playing the demanded role to being a child.
It’s included on their sixth album, “K.O.,” released in 2008.
The dynamic arrangement—more than just raw intensity—showcases RIZE at their best.
How to celebrate an ordinary dayRIZE
It’s a track included on the album “K.O.” The relaxed tempo and JESSE’s rap are striking.
As a RIZER myself, the idea of “wanting to celebrate precisely because it’s an ordinary day” feels so very JESSE-like.
