Unlike the tricky musical style of Gesu no Kiwami Otome., the other band in which Enon Kawatani serves as vocalist, this is straightforward guitar rock.

It’s a song that wishes for “you” to quickly find a heart that wanders without being seen by anyone.

Nolala is a Kyoto-born twin-vocal, three-piece girls’ band garnering attention for lyrics woven with delicate emotions and beautiful harmonies.

This song features a pleasant four-on-the-floor bass drum rhythm that has been sounding at regular intervals since the intro.

The beat ticks away calmly like a heartbeat, but it suddenly surges partway through.

It’s a track that takes you to the next level when you hear it live or at a festival.

In Love with the Mirrorraisan

Reisan is a rising band attracting attention on the music scene.

Formed in December 2021, they’ve captivated many listeners with a unique sound that fuses rock and pop around a hip-hop core.

Their hallmark is CLR’s expressive vocals—interweaving rap and singing—paired with a powerful, full-bodied sound from the skilled members.

Their February 2024 EP, “PEAK TIME,” further broadened their musical range.

The nationwide one-man tour “NICE BUDDY” held in 2025 saw every show sell out on the same day tickets went on sale.

They’ve also been active beyond music, including a collaboration with Kasugai Confectionery’s “Mochira,” earning high praise from the media.

They’re a recommended band for listeners seeking new possibilities in music.

Once you hear the chorus even once, it won’t easily leave your head—this is a quintessentially danceable number by ANA-BOON.

The music video, themed around a man and woman missing each other emotionally, is also a must-see.

In the end, the woman looks exasperated and quickly walks away from the plaza where he’s singing.

This song became a hot topic after being chosen as the theme for the hugely popular anime Gintama.

Its bouncy rhythm and fresh, catchy melody leave a strong impression.

SPYAIR usually has many heavier, more intense tracks, but this song reveals a new side of them, don’t you think?
