Last updated:

Let me introduce songs by SCANDAL, a nonstop four-piece girls’ rock band.

SCANDAL was formed when members who originally attended a vocal and dance school were invited by an instructor to try playing instruments.

While they enjoy idol-like popularity, they also have many captivating songs, and I imagine many people have covered them as copy bands at school festivals.

The gear they use is mainly from Fender, and Squier, a Fender subsidiary, offers cute yet cool signature models that perfectly match their image.

If you’re a female guitarist or bassist who admires them, be sure to check them out.

This is SCANDAL’s 7th single.

It’s a heartrending song about breakups and hurt feelings that resonates with girls in a very real, relatable way.

Each member portrays her own story, and in the music video you can see four stories that tie in with the lyrics.

This is a song that nostalgically remembers someone important from the past, with straightforward and heartrending lyrics that say, ‘I want to see you, I want to see you now.’ I think many people can relate to it.

Hasn’t everyone felt the way these lyrics describe at least once?

Welcome homeSCANDAL

This song is sung with their hometown in mind.

Because SCANDAL formed in Osaka and then moved up to Tokyo, the lyrics make our hearts swell as we listen.

They convey the feeling that, while family will always warmly welcome them back home, they’re still determined to keep pushing forward to make their dreams come true.

This is the song that shifted my perception of SCANDAL from a “girls’ band” to “artists.” It might be interesting to listen while paying a bit of attention to the subtlety of each instrument part, which evokes both images.

SatisfactionSCANDAL

This song was featured in a Windows 8 TV commercial.

TOMOMI contributed to the lyrics.

As the line “Right now, LOVE ME GIVE YOU” suggests, it’s a very cute and catchy love song.

It’s the kind of track that makes you want to sing along when you hear it live.

SCANDAL IN THE HOUSESCANDAL

This song is essentially SCANDAL’s self-introduction anthem.

All the members put down their instruments, grab the mic, and rap—it’s adorable seeing them have so much fun.

It’s guaranteed to get the crowd hyped at live shows.

While it has an idol-like vibe, it’s brimming with SCANDAL’s unique style, making it a one-of-a-kind self-introduction song.
