Let Me Hear is the opening theme for Parasyte -the maxim-, the 2014 anime adaptation of Hitoshi Iwaaki's manga about a student whose right hand is taken over by an alien parasite. Performed by Japanese electronicore band Fear, and Loathing in Las Vegas, the song pairs screamed vocals with dance-style synths, a combination that helped it stand out among anime openings of its era. It spread through anime fan communities, AMVs and opening compilations, and it remains popular because its frantic energy still matches the series' tense, unsettling tone.
About this sound
The opening theme Let Me Hear from the anime Parasyte, a fast electronic rock track used by fans for AMVs, edits and anime opening playlists.
Let Me Hear is the high-energy opening theme to Parasyte, built around driving electronic beats, distorted guitars and rapid, almost shouted vocals that switch between English and Japanese. The track opens with a sharp synth pulse before crashing into a fast, relentless rhythm that feels tense, urgent and slightly chaotic, mirroring the body-horror tension of the series itself. It is instantly recognisable to anime fans from its opening seconds, and it creates a rush of adrenaline that makes a scene feel faster, louder and more intense, whether it is used over an action montage or simply played as a favourite anime opening.
