Deadly Poison Sundries Meikoya-sanSLAVE V-V-R
Created to commemorate MEIKO’s 21st anniversary, this song comes from the popular Vocaloid producer SLAVE.V-V-R—well-known for their “failed retirement.” It was released in November 2025.
The seductive tones of the accordion brilliantly bring to life an unsettling world: a general store dealing in poisons.
Blending the allegorical feel of dark fantasy with a cabaret-style theatrical flair, the piece weaves these elements together to exquisite effect.
MEIKO’s commanding vocals evoke a shopkeeper who is both eerie and irresistibly alluring.
The pinned comment on YouTube reportedly shares behind-the-scenes stories, so be sure to check it out after listening.
Highly recommended for those seeking a grotesque yet beautiful, venom-laced Vocaloid track!
GangsterItoma P
“Gangster” by Itoma-P, the Vocaloid producer known for “Dow wa Youki” and “Youjin,” is a track also included on the album “Giniro Sosogu Machi.” Its aggressive beat, which hurls dissatisfaction at the world, and Len Kagamine’s strained, guttural vocals are just undeniably cool.
The lyrics convey a spit-out resignation, along with a fierce resolve to smash even despair itself.
Those conflicting emotions swirling within the protagonist’s heart are brilliantly portrayed through a downer-tinged sound.
Care to immerse yourself in this dark world?
P-PANDAUtsu P
You’ll be overwhelmed by a sound that hits hard and burrows into your heart.
It’s a track by Utsu-P, released in March 2024.
The distinctive vocals of Kasane Teto SV leave a strong impression.
The lyrics make you reflect on society’s fixation on appearances and the importance of inner value.
It also drew attention as an entry in the BokaColle rankings.
The adorable image of pandas, and the reality behind it… the contrast is striking.
This work questions the pursuit of beauty; I recommend turning up the volume when you listen.
It might be perfect for a change of pace or when you want to take a closer look at yourself.
Suiciders’ DystopiaDIVELA
A track by DIVELA, released in August 2022 and accompanied by a music video in September 2025.
Included on the album “Lost Technology.” It’s quintessential DIVELA electro-rock, characterized by a driving sense of speed woven from heavy beats and synthesizers.
The lyrics and Kagamine Rin’s powerful vocals convey the image of a protagonist who continues to resist while suffering in a desolate future.
It’s a piece that gives you a push when you want to stand and fight even in hopeless situations.
Sister XLadyMonsters.
A dark tune that exudes a spine-tingling eeriness.
Created by LadyMonsters., this work is a new masterpiece in the Vocaloid scene, released in October 2024.
Its electro-swing × alternative rock arrangement is striking, and Flower’s powerful vocals brilliantly capture the complexities of human relationships and the darkness within.
The music video features a fantastical touch with fluttering petals.
It has been climbing the Vocaloid charts since its release.
Perfect for those drawn to dark, mysterious worlds.

L&Pwotaku
An epic dark symphony themed around love and peace! Created by Vocaloid producer wotaku and released in May 2025.
