Career


Okamoto's was formed by four junior high school students. Fans of influential Japanese avant-garde artist Tarō Okamoto, the members took a cue from The Ramones and each adopted stage names with the surname Okamoto.

Okamoto's made their recording debut with an appearance on the Columbia compilation "Here Come the Modernity" in February 2009, then followed it up in June with their debut album, Here Are Okamoto's. Soon after, Masaru Okamoto left the band and was replaced by Hama Okamoto. In support of the album, they gave a sold-out solo performance to commemorate its release. Playing over ten shows a month, they managed to perform over one hundred times in 2009.[1]

In March 2010, they performed at the South by Southwest music festival in Austin, Texas, and also performed in 6 other cities around the United States as part of the Japan Nite tour.[2]

On May 26, 2010, they made their major label debut under the Ariola Japan record label, an affiliate of Sony Music Entertainment Japan. It was announced that Okamoto's major debut single, "Yokubō o Sakebe!!!" (欲望を叫べ!!!, "Shout Out Your Desires!!!") was chosen as the 18th ending theme of the anime series Naruto: Shippuden.

On February 4, 2015, Okamoto's 6th single "Headhunt" was chosen as the opening theme for the anime series Durarara!!x2 Shou.

In 2016, Okamoto's released their 9th single "Brother" as the ending theme for the Netflix series Hibana: Spark.[3] In 2020, the Okamoto's song "Welcome My Friend" was used as the ending theme for the anime series Fugou Keiji: Balance Unlimited.[4]
