It was recently announced that Dadaroma is disbanding. I wasn't a fan of this band at first but the deeper I dove into their music the more I came to like them. They may not be my all time favorite Visual Kei band but I do think they are talented and I am bummed they are disbanding. In recognition of Dadaroma, here are my top 5 Dadaroma songs.
5. Romance Gray
This may not be one of the bands most famous songs but it is still a pretty good song. The melodic guitar work is good and the vocals are spot on. The taping guitar work during the bridge is also pretty good. Dadaroma focuses more on the atmospheric end of their sound and it works well. It may not be the most heavy or eerie song in their catalog but it is still a good song all the same.
4. Risley Circus
Risely Circus was the song that I really liked from Dadaroma and made me more curious about the band. The drum work in the opening of the song creates a great instrumental hook that gets you into the song right away. Then when the main intro gets going, the song produces a great combination of creates a great heavy intro that I rock out to every time I listen to it. The other great hook in this song is the chorus. The great combination of heavy and eerie creates a great chorus that is memorable and shows a good representation of this bands style.
3. Dendrobium
This song is another great combination of heavy and eerie. You get the heavy elements in the guitar playing with the heavy riffs in the intro, pre chorus, and chorus. You then get the eerie element in the vocals. The singing in this song gives a very eerie feel that works very well. Both styles are well balanced and work very together.
2. Day By Day
Day by Day has more of an emotional feel to it then an eerie feel. This is a nice change of pace for this band. While emotion isn't super uncommon for them, they usually don't make the center piece of what they put out there. Before this song it was usually either eerie or straight up heavy metal that they would release as a single. However, this song proves that the band was capable of variety and they pull it off very nicely.
1. Boku Wa Android
Boku Wa Android is one of the bands most well balanced songs. It is heavy with some great melodic guitar playing and the same with the vocals. The song structure is also very well written. They way it transitions from the intro to the verse and then into the chorus are all well done and don't feel out of place. I also really like this song's message about humanity acting like androids and just doing what they are told without questioning. With well written music and a good message, I put Boku Wa Android at number 1.
