Sakanaction / years -Music Video-

Although it was the coupling track to “It’s Because I Listened to Bach’s Melody at Night,” its music video was uploaded to YouTube after four years.

It’s a song that evokes the image of gently flowing water.

The beautiful visuals by filmmaker Tomokazu Yamada match the music perfectly and are a must-see.

SampleSakanakushon

Sakanaction – Sample (Music Video) - Best Album “Fish Encyclopedia” (3/28 release) -

This work features a distinctive sound and striking synthesizers.

It’s the lead track from the night-themed album “NIGHT FISHING,” released in March 2018.

The song captivates with a structure that begins with a serious mood and shifts into a pop development from the chorus into the latter half.

There’s a free, after-school vibe—like in high school—suggested by the anecdote that the members of Sakanaction gathered at Ichiro Yamaguchi’s home to create it.

It’s a track you’ll want to listen to during a night drive or when spending time alone, and it could be a great gateway to the band’s musical style and world.

From tomorrowSakanakushon

[Tried Singing] Sakanaction / From Tomorrow

The song’s melody and lyrics match so nicely that it made me want to listen to it over and over.

Don’t you ever think, “I’ll start tomorrow,” when you’re trying to make a decision about something? Listening to this song made me realize that’s exactly how I am.

I tend to get swayed by what’s around me and end up thinking I’ll start tomorrow.

Somehow, listening to it makes me feel a bit lonely.

And yet, the fact that I still want to listen again is amazing, isn’t it? How about listening to it leisurely while zoning out during some free time at night? I feel like it can help settle the cluttered thoughts in my mind a little.

City of MasksSakanakushon

[I Tried Singing] Sakanaction / Masked City

I thought it was a mysterious song.

The melody was unlike anything I’d heard before, and it made me feel refreshed.

Yamaguchi’s vocals are wonderful, but I thought the chorus in the hook was really cool.

Please give it a listen once and see what you think.

After all, it’s springSakanakushon

After All, It's Spring / Sakanaction (cover)

A track from the 2013 album “sakanaction,” it’s a memorable piece with techno-pop sounds and lyrics depicting a springtime farewell.

The sound naturally makes your body sway—so irresistible.

It’s a wonderful song that lifts your spirits during the somber season of parting.

Monochrome TokyoSakanakushon

Sakanaction – Monochrome Tokyo (copy3)

It was a song that left me with a strange feeling and made me struggle to explain it.

Everyone carries many kinds of hearts, and those hearts seek many different things…

It made me seriously think about what my own heart truly desires.
