Masterpieces and popular songs by SEKAI NO OWARI (SekaOwa)

Let me introduce some songs by the four-piece rock band SEKAI NO OWARI, also known as SekaOwa.

Their music features vocals with Auto-Tune and is captivating for its fantasy-filled soundscapes.

SekaOwa often stirs controversy—starting with remarks like “we don’t need guitars”—and they’re frequently criticized.

But you could also say they’re constantly pursuing a new style that doesn’t fit within the conventional boundaries of music.

While I introduced them at the outset as a rock band, in that sense it might be more accurate to describe them not as a band, but as an entertainment collective.

With that, please enjoy the music of the entertainment collective SEKAI NO OWARI.

Moonlight StationSEKAI NO OWARI

A song that paints a fantastical worldview set in Tokyo on a summer night.

It’s included on the album “Tree,” released in January 2015.

The lyrics express a bittersweet love, lingering over a farewell to “Princess Kaguya” at a moonlit station, and the sound—featuring shamisen and train noises—has a distinctive Japanese flair.

It was also used in a commercial for UHA Mikakuto’s “Puccho,” resonating with many listeners.

It’s a slightly wistful track you’ll want to hear on the way home from a summer fireworks festival.

Brimming with SEKAI NO OWARI’s uniquely immersive atmosphere, this piece is recommended not only for fans but also for anyone seeking a sense of Japanese sentiment.

Sleeping BeautySEKAI NO OWARI

The lyrics are composed of a uniquely distinctive story, resembling an RPG game in which a boy rescues a princess.

This strongly fantastical content could be said to represent SEKAI NO OWARI themselves, and once you listen, there’s no doubt you’ll be hooked.

Angel and DemonSEKAI NO OWARI

The End of the World / Angels and Demons
Angel and DemonSEKAI NO OWARI

A song written with a focus on children’s education, conveying a message about what’s right and what’s wrong.

Listening to this song makes even us adults question what the correct answer is—it’s a deeply thought-provoking piece.

ANTI-HEROSEKAI NO OWARI

This is SEKAI NO OWARI’s eighth major single, released in July 2015.

The song was used as the theme for the film Attack on Titan.

Sung entirely in English, it questions what justice means from the perspective of a villain.

Its captivating, otherworldly sound and dark atmosphere leave an impression, while the lyrics deliver a powerful message.

Fukase’s strong vocals are also a major draw.

It’s a track that makes you reflect on what justice is and what it means to stand by your convictions.

Listening to it after watching the film makes it even more moving.

Re:setSEKAI NO OWARI

This is a song I want you to listen to when you want to escape from reality.

It’s included on SEKAI NO OWARI’s 2019 album “Eye” and was used as the image song for the game Catherine: Full Body.

Its defining feature is an aggressive sound that weaves in rap and shouts.

It’s as if the piece turns inner turmoil and conflict directly into sound, giving voice to the cry of the heart on days when you don’t want to go to college.

amberSEKAI NO OWARI

SEKAI NO OWARI is a band that has remained at the forefront of the Japanese rock scene for many years.

While they haven’t been particularly active recently, they’ve now dropped a new song: Kohaku (Amber).

This track isn’t exactly low in pitch, but its vocal range is relatively narrow for their work, and it features a very relaxed tempo.

The melodic movement is also fairly gentle, making it one of the easiest SEKAI NO OWARI songs to sing.

SOSSEKAI NO OWARI

This song, which became the theme for the latter part of a popular anime, features lyrics entirely in English and presents an unprecedentedly chic tone.

With Fukase’s falsetto sounding wonderfully pleasant, it delivers a fresh musical style unlike anything SEKAI NO OWARI has done before.
