NICO Touches the Walls was a dynamic Japanese rock band known for their blend of melodic rock, punk, and even pop elements. Founded in 2004, the group was composed of lead vocalist and guitarist Mitsumura Tatsuya, Furumura Daisuke on guitar, Sakakura Shingo on bass, and Tsushima Shotaro on drums. NICO, as they were commonly abbreviated, quickly established themselves within the music scene for their energetic live performances and a sound that struck a chord with both critics and fans alike.
Over the years, NICO Touches the Walls released a variety of successful singles and albums that showcased their evolving style and musical proficiency. The band's work has not only stood out in the indie rock scene but also crossed over into mainstream success with contributions to popular anime soundtracks, such as the themes for "Naruto Shippuden" and "Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood." With a discography that includes the anthemic "ニワカ雨ニモ負ケズ," the multi-faceted "マシ・マシ," and the introspective "勇気も愛もないなんて," NICO Touches the Walls solidified their place in the heart of Japan's music scene. Though the band announced their breakup after their final concert in November 2019, their music continues to touch the walls of listeners' hearts, leaving behind a lasting legacy.
