Famous and popular songs by SIAM SHADE

SIAM SHADE, who enjoyed great popularity in the visual scene from the mid-1990s to the early 2000s, created numerous songs that made full use of their raw, emotionally charged vocals—music that resonated not only with the youth of the time but still carries enough intensity to connect today.

They also have catchy tracks that were used as anime theme songs, so they’re recommended even for those who’ve never listened to visual kei.

SIAM SHADE’s Classic and Popular Songs (21–30)

Why not?SIAM SHADE

Siam Shade – Why not? (sub español)
Why not?SIAM SHADE

Released on February 21, 1997.

The label is Sony Music Records.

It’s a single cut from the 2nd album, SIAM SHADE III.

Apparently, the music video contains some indecent elements, so it has faced certain restrictions.

It’s hard-hitting with plenty of punch, yet the way it suddenly calms down right after the solo is really nice.

Pure Emotion on 3/1SIAM SHADE

When it comes to SIAM SHADE, I think many people picture this song.

It was also tied in as the ending theme for the anime Rurouni Kenshin, and I believe many started listening to it because of that.

It’s a very accessible track with relatable lyrics, making it a truly wonderful song.

Still We GoSIAM SHADE

Their 17th single.

After being released first on iTunes, it was later issued each season as a single with an added instrumental version.

This single was sold exclusively at live venues, making it a rare piece owned only by fans.

First released as the B-side to their 14th single, “Life.” With its catchy, upbeat rhythm and easy call-and-response, it’s a real crowd-pleaser at live shows.

In the fan vote for the complete best-of collection, it ranked 18th among all songs.

As I AmSIAM SHADE

This is the song “Sugao no Mama de,” which is the sixth track on the album SIAM SHADE II, released on November 11, 1995.

The original composition and lyrics were completed by CHACK.

It’s their first original album after their major-label debut.

As always, Junji’s setup is like a fortress and it’s mesmerizing.

I think listening to this track before a festival will really get you hyped up.

Never EndSIAM SHADE

Starting with an intro in 5/4 time, this piece immediately captures the listener’s ear.

The lyrics, imbued with a desire to cherish a relationship with a loved one despite daily stress and hardship, resonate deeply.

Released in October 1998 as SIAM SHADE’s ninth single, it was used as the opening theme for the TBS TV program “Rank Kingdom.” With total sales of approximately 82,000 copies and inclusion in a fan-voted best-of album, its popularity is evident.

Highly recommended for those interested in odd time signatures or looking to rediscover the appeal of rock bands.

SADNESSSIAM SHADE

It’s included on their first major-label album, SIAM SHADE II.

Although the album is titled SIAM SHADE II, the “II” is used because an album called SIAM SHADE had already been released during their indie days.

The song itself is quite slow and gives a somewhat dark impression.

Because of that, the guitar solo stands out prominently, making it a track guitarists should definitely listen to.
