장범준 (Jang Beom June) - 전쟁이나면 (If war breaks out) | 2024
On 3rd Dec 24 Former President (and hopefully soon to be convicted traitor) Yoon Suk Yoel tried to transform South Korea through announcing Martial Law into a facist dictatorship. Korean citizens fought bravely to protect their democracy. In the middle of this 'if war breaks out' was published. A strong song, that reminds me of this time and all the feelings connected to it.

まみれた (mamireta) -『もしもし』(moshi moshi) | 2025
*riiiing* "ah moshi moshi~" *guitar shredding*
I listenend to a lot of mamireta this year and it gave me a lot. Visual Kei at its finest. What is visual kei? Yeah exactly this. It was pretty hard to decide which song was the best, but moshi moshi got it, because of the creative execution. Great art, great band. If you are into punk you might like them, too.

ONE OK ROCK - Delusion:All | 2024
Some ONE OK ROCK songs have the weird trait to hit late. If you listened to a song for several months, but it needs a certain enviroment or situation until it actuallt becomes remarkable. Delusion:All is such a case. The full song could only shine with the context of the whole Detox Album. With it, it became a defining and supportive backround sound for 2025

Rorschach.inc - Metro | 2025
It's not going to be a good music year without a splendid Rorschach.inc release. Tbh it's honestly the biggest problem for this band: not enough music. Quality before quantity I guess. This was on the August/Korea Playlist! Perfect song for Seoul atmosphere 🚇✨

Royz - Monster March | 2025
Probably the earworm of the year! I swear every time the song comes on, i feel like marching through the room. Love the song. But i swear it was a pain to get the whole Royz discography.

The Poraliscope - 「アイノウ」("I know") | 2025
As I started using apple music to keep up with new releases, i now get music recs from bands without having even finished their official pages. I was so scared the Poraliscope would be AI but turns out, one of the guitarists of UCHUSENTA:NOIZ went solo. And it's perfect, chill, fun, creative music. Now there's also homepage and YT

Acidman - 青い風 (Aoi Kaze/ Blue wind) | 2025
In October Acidman released their newest album. As I am currently not much into Acidmans music with their recent changes i nearly skippded the album. I had to force myself to add it. But then: it's a masterpiece 😂 they only released the annoying poppy songs, but the rest of the album has that perfect Acidman magic. I get goosebumps listening to 青い風.

Kpop Demon Hunters - Idol | 2025
It's 2025, me and my friend are finally ready for our trip to Korea, after the political turmoil news seemed to calm down, the K-industry was slacking off, but then, suddenly, out of nowhere Kpop Demon Hunters was dropped! Imagine! Absolut madness! It felt like a sign 😂
I choose Idol as a signature song but it could also been one of the others.

猫背のネイビーセゾン (Nekoze no Navyseason) - 「Dole Playing」 | 2025
A small and fun J-Rock band, with a very annoying name but banger music. Nekoze are very creative, with a little punk mixed in and very satisfying bass lines. I can highly recommend them. They need more support!

泥眼 (Deigan) - 「包帯」 (Houtei) | 2025
One of the early highlights of 2025. What a perfect composition between strong guitar riffs and a melodious chorus. The riffs itself constructed to close as a perfect circle, while the chorus leans on old school visual kei and chruch inspired elements. Much love to this young Visual Kei band. I hope they will have bright future ahead!

MAMA. - CRY MORRY | 2025
Most anticipated album of the year ✨ it's an album on steroids, ADHD turned into music. As the song (and album) was only released in october, i still could not entirely understand the complexity. I have no idea how the band writes songs, but it's either genius or drugs (or a lot of Tiktok consumption). But i am there for it. My brain loves it.
