Japanese metalcore-meets-idol band HANABIE. have unleashed their wild new track ‘Karu Garu Everyday!!’.
The song doubles as the theme for the zany new anime Araiguma Calcal-dan, and it’s everything you’d expect from the self-proclaimed "Harajuku-Core" queens — infectious cuteness, guttural growls, and a healthy dose of madness.
“It’s packed with all kinds of emotions,” said vocalist Yukina, whose sugary vocals and sharp shouts fuel the track’s whiplash energy. “I hope it becomes a motivational anthem for our fans!”
Originally a 29-second TV theme, the band fleshed it out into a full-length track that’s punchy, poppy, and pure HANABIE. chaos. Expect shouty chants (“Fure Fure!”), surreal anime flair, and a finale stacked with massive bass and snare work.
Formed in Tokyo in 2015, HANABIE. have been climbing global festival stages with their high-octane blend of metal and kawaii culture. This November, they’ll headline a European tour before heading to Knotfest Mexico to close out the year.
