With their extreme looks, statements, and songs, this artist tends to divide opinion, but many of the tracks they create are catchy and easy to listen to.

This time, I picked a selection of energetic Western songs brimming with power.

Unlike Japanese music, Western music can sometimes have surprisingly aggressive lyrics even in bright, upbeat tracks, creating a gap between the feel of the melody and the lyrics.

Taking a look at the lyrics can be unexpectedly interesting, so be sure to check them out.
