RADWIMPS
Yojiro Noda (Vo&G)
Akira Kuwahara (G)
Yusuke Takeda (Bass)
Satoshi Yamaguchi (Dr)

Creating very original master pieces with unique lyrical world, RADWIMPS has been described as “New Invention”. Their music keeps high level of musicianship while still being pop as they flawlessly cross over various genres. Soon after their debut around the age of 20, they have become one of the most popular 4-piece rock bands with cutting edge style in the Japanese music scene. All of their studio albums marked the sales of over 100k, and their concert tickets are one of the hottest tickets in Japan causing the toughest battles among fans.

The band was formed in 2001.
In 2003, RADWIMPS released their self-titled indie album. The major label debut was the single “25 Kome No Senshokutai” in November, 2005.
After the release of their 7th studio album “Batsu To Maru To Tsumi To” in 2013, the band went on the road, in Feb. 2014, with the biggest tour in their history including their 4 overseas shows, marking the total of 220,000 audiences.
In 2015, the band celebrated their 10th anniversary with the first European tour (Paris/Cologne/Berlin/London) and the second Asian tour (Seoul/Taipei). (Right before the tour, the drummer Satoshi Yamaguchi’s chronic disease worsened to the point that he had to take a break from the band.) Back in Japan, they went on the first ever joint gig tour with 11 of their respecting fellow bands, and a headline gig at Makuhari Messe to conclude a successful year with more than 30,000 audiences.
RADWIMPS composed and played the entire soundtrack for the critically acclaimed, award winning anime movie “Your Name.”, which opened in Japan during the summer 2016 and is scheduled to run from April 7th Stateside. The movie was also welcomed with big success in the UK in Nov. 2016. In addition to the movie becoming a record breaking hit around the world, the soundtrack they produced has also been highly acclaimed.

RADWIMPS released their latest album “Human Bloom” in November, 2016 and went on the road to support it with nationwide arena tour in Japan titled “Human Bloom Tour 2017” visiting 12 cities with 17 shows. The band also toured successfully through out Asia in 2017, including their first show in mainland China at Mercedes Benz Arena. With further demand from the fans to see more, they will hit the road again on another extensive Japan tour and Asia tour this summer.

New album release confirmed for Dec. 12th! New live Blu-ray/DVD release also confirmed!

Since 2 years from the last album release, new album is confirmed for Dec. 12, 2018.
Limited edition will include documentary footage following the band on their journey from “Your Name.” and “Human Bloom” to this new album, based on their interview.
Live Blu-ray/DVD of “Road to Catharsis Tour 2018” from June, 2018 is also confirmed for simultaneous release. This is the first time that their show from Yokohama will be release on Blu-ray/DVD.
Stay tuned for more information coming soon.

That is “RADWIMPS 18fes.” 1,000 x 18 year olds sent their message videos to RADWIMPS, who then wrote 2 songs just for this collab. Collaboration wasn’t just with chorus but also with body percussion and instrumental percussion!

The program will not just broadcast the event itself but also follows the 18 year old generation as they prep for the special collaboration. It will also feature RADWIMPS as they wrote these songs and their interview looking back to when they were 18.
