Sakanaction’s classic and popular songs

Here are some songs by Sakanaction, a band that has carved out a unique place for themselves with distinctive tracks rooted in their own worldview.

I still can’t forget the time they headlined at one of the RUSH BALL festivals—the stage at Izumiotsu Phoenix, enveloped in the darkness of night and illuminated with dreamy lighting, matched their music perfectly and was truly moving.

Ichiro Yamaguchi (Vo./Gt.) is an avid angler, and some of their songs use fishing as a concept, with fishing scenes even appearing in their music videos.

Knowing that background might lead to new discoveries when you listen to their music.
