Nights Over EgyptThe Jones Girls
The Jones Girls, a group hailing from Detroit, a hotbed of R&B.
They have a background singing backup for great soul singers such as Lou Rawls, Teddy Pendergrass, Diana Ross, and Aretha Franklin.
As you’d expect, their vocal abilities are top-notch, and their songs showcase the tightly synchronized harmonies of the Jones sisters.
Their signature track “Nights Over Egypt” is a prime example, a distinctive Philly soul piece that pairs an unusual backing track with striking choral hooks.
NIGHTS LIKE THISThe Kid LAROI
The Kid LAROI is an artist who enjoys immense popularity in Australia.
In his early days, even though he had the title of rapper, he occupied more of an idol-like position, which led to many listeners being critical of him.
But now his musical edge has become more apparent, and he’s gained recognition from hardcore music fans as well.
Among his work, the one I especially recommend is Nights Like This.
It might seem like a challenging song with lots of falsetto, but there are many repeated verses and the melodic movement isn’t complex, so once you get the falsetto down, it’s actually easy to sing.

Night Of The HunterThe Libertines
In the early 2000s, The Libertines rose to become a charismatic band, delivering rock infused with a uniquely British romanticism and lyricism, and projecting an overwhelming presence that included Pete Doherty’s unruly persona.
After various twists and turns, they’ve restarted activities and are set to release their fourth album, “All Quiet on the Eastern Esplanade,” in March 2024.
“Night Of The Hunter,” released in December 2023, is a lead track from that album.
Film aficionados might be reminded of the movie of the same name, The Night of the Hunter, and indeed the band has said they drew from it.
Sonically, the song takes the form of a melancholic ballad that reveals the band’s quieter side, and it’s interesting to hear a Swan Lake–like phrase woven into the intro.
No ObligationThe Linda Lindas
The Linda Lindas, a young punk rock band based in Los Angeles, released a song in September 2024 that also serves as the title track of their second album.
Composed primarily by bassist Eloise Wong, the song emphasizes the importance of living authentically without being bound by others’ expectations or societal pressures.
While rooted in L.A.’s punk scene, their sound also incorporates elements of pop and garage rock, blending youthful energy with remarkable maturity.
Riding the momentum of their 2024 tour, which included performances with Green Day, this track signals yet another step forward in their evolution.
NotionThe Rare Occasions
The Rare Occasions are a rock band drawing global attention with their smooth indie rock.
In 2021, they released a Japan-themed track called “Origami,” which briefly became a hot topic.
“Notion” is their biggest hit to date.
It’s frequently used on TikTok across a wide range of content, from glow-up videos to laid-back clips of everyday life.
While it doesn’t feature an intense drop, its smooth, memorable melody line stands out—so if you’re looking to make a glow-up video, definitely give it a listen.
New SlangThe Shins
This is a song whose gentle melody and poetic lyrics resonate deeply.
Released by The Shins in February 2001, it was included on their debut album, Oh, Inverted World, and became one of the band’s signature works.
The lyrics delicately capture anxiety, loneliness, and a yearning for change, striking a chord with many listeners.
It gained attention after being featured in the 2004 film Garden State, cementing the band’s place in the indie rock scene.
The track has since appeared in various films and TV shows and is beloved by a wide audience.
It’s recommended listening when you’re at a crossroads in life or want a quiet moment of introspection.
New GirlThe Suicide Machines
Hailing from Detroit, Michigan, The Suicide Machines are an indispensable band when discussing US ska punk.
Even in Japan, many musicians in ska-punk-leaning bands say they started because of the band’s influence; they’re respected as legends of the genre.
Formed in 1991, they spent several years in the indie scene before releasing their first major-label album, Destruction by Definition, in 1995.
Their sound, which fuses raw punk with lively ska, made waves not only in the U.S.
but, as mentioned, also among punk fans in Japan.
Their 1998 second album, the highly acclaimed Battle Hymns, consists mostly of aggressive short tunes under two minutes, showcasing a hardcore-leaning take on skacore.
If you want to enjoy their skacore side, the standout track Give from that album is highly recommended.
By the way, their self-titled third album from 2000 emphasizes a power-pop sound influenced by bands like The Beatles.
It’s a release where you can enjoy another facet of the band, but those expecting their ska punk or hardcore punk side should take note!
