Primarily active in Tokyo, I have experience as a backup dancer for artists, a music video dancer, and a commercial dancer. I continue to work as a dancer while also engaging in article production. After discovering Michael Jackson in junior high school, I began dancing in my second year of high school. Since starting dance, in addition to the J-Pop and Japanese rock I had been listening to, I began exploring Western R&B, rap, alternative music, and other tracks commonly used for dance. In elementary school, I spent three years in a choir, and because I love singing, I often go to karaoke for fun. These days, I enjoy a wide range of music, from Japanese rock and rap to K-pop.

SUPER BEAVER, whose song “Hitoride Ikiteitanaraba” was featured on the YouTube channel THE FIRST TAKE and became a hot topic.

Their career reads like a drama: a major-label debut in 2009, leaving the major label in 2011, and then signing a new major-label contract in 2020.

They’ve released countless masterpieces, whether on major labels or as independents!

In this article, we’ll introduce a whole range of their passionate and straightforward tracks all at once!

The words in their songs that resonate directly with your heart, and the exquisitely beautiful melodies woven with overwhelming melodic sense, are must-hear!

SUPER BEAVER is a four-piece rock band that thrills fans with passionate, universally relatable messages and a modern rock sound.

Their third digital-only single, “Kesshin” (Determination), was written specifically as the theme song for Morinaga’s in Jelly Energy Glucose TV commercial, “Energy for Thinking.” Its message—keep walking the path you believe in, no matter what anyone says—will especially give courage to those anxious about their future.

A powerful rock tune whose driving, fast-paced ensemble feels like a tailwind pushing you forward.

This is a song included as the second track on the album “Mirae no Hajimekata,” released by Space Shower Music in 2012.

It’s about the fear of showing your true self even when you’re close enough to touch the person you love.

People who are in love will likely relate to it, don’t you think?

This is a gem of a message song that portrays the love and wishes of people living in the city.

Filled with romance, it resonates with heartfelt feelings for someone dear and a gentle hope that they, too, will be loved.

Shibuya Ryota’s commanding vocals blend perfectly with the powerful band sound, stirring the hearts of listeners.

A version featuring Haruko Nagaya from Ryokuoushoku Shakai also drew attention.

It’s a track you’ll want to listen to while thinking of someone important, perfect for deepening feelings for a lover or family.

This is a song included on the third mini-album, “SUPER BEAVER.” The intro kicks off with a slapped bass, and the subsequent development gives off a funky vibe.

The lyrics are also striking, conveying the anguish of unwanted thoughts spinning around in your head that you wish you could forget.

It is included on their second full-length album, “How to Begin the Future.” The lyrics resonate with the sense of questioning the unspoken rules in relationships—rules like not stepping any further into someone’s heart—and with the idea that if those boundaries are broken, a new kind of connection might come into view.

SUPER BEAVER "Secret" MV

It’s a song that’s often played toward the end of their live shows.

In the intro, the interlude, and the outro, there are parts where everyone can sing along with “la la la,” and at concerts the whole venue comes together to sing in unison.

It’s so powerful that even people who don’t know their music are left in awe.

It really feels like a song made with live performance in mind.

That said, even without all that, the melody is simply beautiful, and when you listen, it truly tugs at your heart.

This is the final track on the album “How to Begin the Future,” released in 2012 by I×L×P× RECORDS.

I believe it serves as an answer song to the title.

At the end, there’s a phrase that makes the album feel complete as a single work.
