Hits you hard! A collection of dark and cool Vocaloid tracks (11–20)
Asian giant hornetUtsu-P
It’s an ultra-aggressive loud rock track driven by a brutally low-tuned guitar.
Created by Vocaloid producer Utsu-P, it was released in August 2025.
The thunderous low-end sound and Miku’s vocals—mixing shouts and growls—are insanely cool.
The message, which bares its fangs at an unfair society and intrusive others while warning anyone who tries to invade one’s territory, is cathartic for the listener, too.
When you want to blast away your daily frustrations at full volume, definitely give it a listen!
TwitterlandSTEAKA
STEAKA’s track “Twitterland,” which has drawn attention for its distinctive musicality, was released in 2022 and has captivated a wide range of listeners.
The song sharply depicts how social media affects people’s lives and portrays the complexity it brings to human relationships.
The fusion of STEAKA’s vivid sonic landscapes with electronic pop instantly draws listeners into the world of “Twitterland.” It’s especially recommended for those who frequently use social media in their daily lives or who are interested in the impact of digital communication.
nightmareNEW!Camellia
Like a baku that devours dreams, the city swallows you whole…
This Vocaloid track captures that suffocating feeling in sound.
Composed by Tsubaki and released in December 2025, it portrays the nightmare-like sensations that recur in urban life through razor-sharp word choices and richly shadowed sonics.
Its motifs—discomfort with consumer society and wounds that refuse to heal—come across with raw immediacy.
A must-listen for anyone seeking a darkly atmospheric Vocaloid song.
MarshmallowDECO*27
This work, released for streaming in October 2025 by DECO*27, who continues to lead the forefront of the Vocaloid scene, is a mixture rock number brimming with intensity despite its sweet title.
It portrays the mindset of a protagonist who realizes the relationship is false and tries to sever the other’s deceit, lining up sharp words that challenge the very act of professing love.
With a song structure interweaving hard guitar riffs and rap sections, it delivers an aggressive sound.
VTuber Laplus Darknesss joins the chorus.
It may resonate especially with those who have suffered through a fabricated romance.
The 49th dayUi Nashimoto
You might get chills from the ominous atmosphere of this rock sound.
With lyrics that feel like they’re looking down on the living world from the afterlife and a gritty guitar tone, this piece stands out as a work by Nashimoto Ui, who is active not only as a Vocaloid producer but also as a band musician.
It was used as the ending theme for season 2 of the TV anime Yamishibai: Japanese Ghost Stories.
The track heightens the sense of fear within the anime, and Hatsune Miku’s husky vocals match the eerie aftertaste of the story.
Abdus Simawotaku
If you want to immerse yourself in a dark, aggressive world, definitely check this out! It’s a provocative track with a vertical-groove feel, driven by bass house-style low-end and topped with the sharp delivery of Synthesizer V 2 AI Frimomen.
The song is by wotaku and was released in October 2025.
Set in nighttime back alleys and an old shopping district, it portrays a protagonist staking their claim to their territory, evoking that irresistible outlaw vibe reminiscent of past works like “Gehenna” and “Mafia.” The rap-like flow and hard-hitting beat are a perfect match, making for a work with serious impact!

SIRENhal
“SIREN” was released by Hal in 2023.
This track is a work that encapsulates a distinctly dark and cool worldview.
Miku’s cool, crystalline vocals bring color to the dystopian world Hal envisions.
Another appeal lies in how the song portrays the protagonist’s anguish and inner conflict between ideals and reality through a powerful yet heartrending melody.
Dark as it is, the song still evokes a sense of hope—perfect for moments when you want to reflect on yourself or stir the emotions sleeping deep within your heart.
