The War Is Oncoldrain
Serving as the vanguard for the third album, The Revelation, this track stands apart from previous songs with its heavy, oppressive beat, a sound that feels fierce yet mechanical, and a lingering, almost wistful emotionality.
Not just on this track, but throughout The Revelation, the sound design is marked by an impressively—and irresistibly—over-the-top heaviness in the drums.
The Braverysupercell
This song is also popular as the ending theme of the MBS/TBS anime “Magi.” Bearing a title that means “brave,” the track powerfully sings about the kindness to help others and the strength to make dreams come true, as shown by the protagonists in the anime.
It’s a perfect cheer song for anyone who wants that kind of strength.

The Autumn SongErugāden
It’s included on their fourth single, “Missing.” The lyrics link the feeling of inexplicable emptiness despite being fulfilled with the melancholy of autumn that makes one prone to sentimentality.
It’s a track with a strong alternative rock flavor.
Casual Animal IntroductionsYabai T-shatsu Yasan
It’s included on the 2018 single “Genki Ippai.” In true Yaba-T style, it introduces animals in a deliberately “sloppy” way over a rock-tinged track.
The song is sprinkled with Yaba-T’s sense of humor, and somehow, by the latter half, it starts to sound like a genuinely good tune.
The Great Escapeshōjo jidai
Although it was never released as a single, this song has been performed on Japanese TV shows.
In the chorus, Taeyeon takes the lead vocals while the other eight members take turns with their parts, and the balance and tempo are outstanding.
Back then I only knew songs like Genie and Gee, but hearing this track made me realize I had become a full-fledged Girls’ Generation fan.
THE BEGINNING44MAGNUM
“THE BEGINNING,” delivered by a band emblematic of the ’80s, is a forward-looking, positive track brimming with excitement worthy of its title.
As their flamboyant outfits suggest, this song bursts with wild, no-holds-barred energy that won’t let you down—a must-hear killer tune!
