ONE OK ROCK is back, and their new single “+Matter” is everything we didn’t know we needed this week. Emotional, anthemic, and so full of heart, the band has once again proven why they’re legends when it comes to connecting music with emotions.
From the very first note, “+Matter” pulls you in. Taka’s vocals are, as always, pure magic—powerful, emotive, and just the right amount of intense to make every word hit home. The song’s message? You matter. Even when life feels heavy, even when you feel invisible, this track reminds you that you’re not alone. It’s one of those songs that feels like a hug, but also like a battle cry.
Musically, ONE OK ROCK nails that perfect balance between pop and rock they’re so good at. The soaring instrumentals bring this huge, cinematic feel, with melodic guitar lines and punchy drums that give the song life without overwhelming its emotional depth. The build to the chorus is so smooth and uplifting, and once it hits, you’ll want to scream along with Taka at the top of your lungs—because yes, YOU matter.
“+Matter” feels like a reminder, wrapped in a song, that we’re all stronger than we think. It’s powerful, hopeful, and honestly, exactly the kind of anthem we need right now.
Whether you’re a longtime ONE OK ROCK fan or just discovering them, this track deserves a spot on your playlist.
