Let me introduce some songs by Uchikubi Gokumon Doukoukai, a three-piece rock band that has become popular in living rooms across the country, including through appearances on Nippon TV’s “Gyoretsu no Dekiru Horitsu Sodanjo.” Their music is highly regarded by fellow musicians—such as RIZE’s bassist, kenken—and its appeal lies in the way the lyrics and melodies brim with pop sensibilities and humor, even while the songs lean toward hardcore and melodic hardcore.

They’re truly a one-of-a-kind band unlike anything we’ve seen before, and we can’t wait to see even more from them in the future.

Just by looking at the title, it’s obvious what the song is conveying.

It’s a track that sings about the greatness of Japanese rice and a deep love for it.

With its powerful listing of delicious ways to eat rice, it’s a song that makes you hungry just by listening.

This song is based on the popular segment “Moped (Cub) Series” from the variety show How Do You Like Wednesday?, which has a large, devoted fanbase.

The artist’s strong affection for the show is evident from the many related songs they’ve written, such as “88” and “How Do You Like Pie?”

A three-piece band with male and female members formed in 2004.

Their band name is pretty odd, and many of their songs are a bit unusual too—ranging from super-relatable anthems to tracks about food.

They’re a band you can enjoy live, where you can shout out the names of foods from the bottom of your heart.

Recently, they’ve been in the spotlight after the bassist, Junko, publicly announced that she had turned 60.

It’s a song that, from the very beginning, sings about a “plan to take a bath and crash into bed right away,” laying out the comforts of the night before a day off and the holiday itself.

It sounds delightful as it maps out how to make bath time even more fulfilling and tries out different ways to sleep.

TAVEMONO NO URAMIUchikubi Gokumon Doukoukai

As the phrase suggests, this is a song about a grudge over food.

Throughout the track, it keeps singing about how the pudding saved in the fridge was eaten.

You can tell that grudges over food are terrifyingly deep-rooted—so much so that a single incident can fill an entire song.

New GingerationUchikubi Gokumon Doukoukai

Are you all familiar with Iwashita’s New Ginger? This song compiles delicious ways to prepare Iwashita’s New Ginger.

I hope you’ll use it as a reference to make something tasty and enjoy it together with “Japan’s rice.”

As you can tell from the lyrics suddenly starting with the character for “fish,” it’s a song about seafood, and its message encourages eating fish.

The music video is also set on the vast ocean, expressing the song’s worldview.

It’s a track brimming with love for an island nation, proclaiming that eating fish is etched into the DNA of the Japanese people.
