One of the saddest existential crisis songs I've heard: "King for a King" by Will Varley. Like Springsteen's "The River" but British, and maybe even more bleak. Someone taught me this song while I was in Sweden, lol. Basically about how society fucks you over, and mistakes can cost you everything. - Kotaku In Action 2

I personally like showing people Maximum the Hormone just to fuck with them. It was really easy back when they made the OP/ED for Death Note and it became easy again when Chainsaw Man of all things dedicated a whole chapter to their most famous song.

Because not only is their music in a completely other language, half of its runtime is spent being peppy JPOP because their drummer is a tiny Asian girl singing it.
