A collection of Western songs with titles starting with “K”

In this article, I’ll be introducing famous Western songs whose titles start with the letter “K.”

When it comes to English words that begin with “K,” there are plenty that seem perfect for song titles, like “Kiss,” “Keep,” and “Knock.”

Chances are, you haven’t often had the opportunity to search for and listen only to songs that start with a specific letter of the alphabet.

So by reading this article, you might discover songs you didn’t know or find something new.

Take this opportunity to explore a variety of tracks!

A roundup of Western songs with titles starting with 'K' (161–170)

Because breakcore is largely defined by its high BPM and complex breakbeats, you can find tracks influenced by a variety of genres.

Among them, “Kill Or Be Killed” is a work strongly influenced by Jamaican dancehall reggae.

In contrast to the boldly chanted “Komagen! Komagen! Komagen!” typical of dancehall, this track—built on extremely intricate breakbeats—brilliantly fuses the analog vibe of dancehall reggae with the avant‑garde feel of breakcore.

KimiBogdan Raczynski

Affiliated with the label Rephlex Records, run by Richard D.

James and Grant Wilson-Claridge, the Polish-American artist Bogdan Raczynski is another figure I’d like to introduce in the context of drill ’n’ bass.

He made his debut in 1999 with an album titled “Boku Mo Wakaran,” and it seems this peculiar title stems from a period when Raczynski attended an art school in Japan.

Let’s highlight “Kimi,” a track with a Japanese title as well, included on his album “Samurai Math Beats,” also released that year.

Amid the pastoral atmosphere created by a mysterious, childlike vocal effect and whistling, sudden bursts of unruly electronic tones and breakbeats jump in, producing a strangely captivating charm.

The album as a whole is packed to the brim with Raczynski’s wildly original sensibilities, so I highly recommend checking out the entire record.

Bon Jovi, a band with record-breaking sales that has continued a long career without being swept away by the tides of the times, has not always had smooth sailing.

The tremendous success of the 1980s exhausted the band, soured the atmosphere among the members, and led them into solo projects, bringing them to the brink of breaking up.

The song that symbolizes the band rising again after overcoming the greatest crisis in their history is Keep The Faith.

In 1992, at the height of the alternative rock era, the album of the same name reached No.

5 on the U.S.

charts and No.

1 on the U.K.

charts.

It showcased the band’s vitality, and listening to this anthem—celebrating their unshakeable bond as they face headwinds without giving in—will surely give you courage.

Among 90s emo legends, Braid from Illinois stood out with a unique sound that intertwined off-kilter guitar riffs and contrasting vocals, and a rhythm section capable of dynamic shifts, forming intricate ensembles that would later resonate with “mathcore.” Active from 1993 to 1999 before disbanding, they reunited in 2011, released a comeback record, and even toured Japan.

The three albums they left in the 90s are all widely acclaimed, but this piece focuses on their third album, Frame & Canvas, released before their breakup.

Often hailed as their masterpiece, the album was produced with J.

Robbins—frontman of the essential band Jawbox and a highly skilled producer—whose work is indispensable to the history of emocore and post-hardcore.

The result is a landmark record of remarkable quality that can rightly be called the culmination of the emo-to-post-hardcore sound Braid had pursued since their debut.

Unlike the lyricism found in bands like Mineral or Sunny Day Real Estate, Braid’s slightly twisted pop sensibility is uniquely their own, and their unpredictable song structures paired with deeply affecting melodies create an addictive pull that’s hard to escape once you’re hooked.

Kiedy byłem małym chłopcemBreakout

Breakout – Kiedy byłem małym chłopcem [Official Audio]
Kiedy byłem małym chłopcemBreakout

A classic that left a profound mark on Poland’s blues-rock scene, Blues.

Released in 1971, this album remains beloved by many fans as Breakout’s signature work.

One of the tracks explores life’s values through a dialogue between father and son, resonating deeply with listeners.

Powerful guitar riffs and emotive vocals blend perfectly, creating a gem where the soul of the blues fuses with the energy of rock.

It’s recommended for those who want to reflect on life through music and for anyone seeking lyrics and performances that truly move the heart.

This work, which revolutionized Poland’s music scene, is a must-hear for any blues-rock fan.

Killing FrostBride Adorned

A Finnish band.

Rather than bold, catchy symphonic metal, their hallmark is a sorrowful melody.

Even the abundant orchestral sounds are used purely to evoke sadness.

It’s a song I want to listen to on a rainy day when I want to bask in a solemn mood.

Kool-AidBring Me The Horizon

It’s a hit song by a British metalcore band that the country proudly presents to the world—still fresh in our memories for headlining Summer Sonic 2024.

Their dark, heavy guitar sound, combined in recent years with digital rhythms, gives them an ambitious musicality and a distinctive character that defies easy categorization.

If you’re going to sing this track, which has an atmosphere that fires up the audience, you won’t need a smile.

What matters are cannon-like screams and a raspy growl dragged from the back of your throat.

Imagine putting a booster on your vocal cords and shout from the pit of your stomach.
