THE SIXTH LIE is a dynamic Tokyo-based electronic rock band known for their seamless blend of digital and analog sounds, which gives them a unique edge within the Japanese music scene. Formed in 2015, the group consists of members Ray (vocals), Reiji (guitar), Hiroto (keyboard/synthesizer), and Takahiro (bass). The name of the band is inspired by their mission to challenge the proverbial "fifth lie," a Japanese term for "unnecessary things," thus the name embodies their desire to create something essential and true with their music.

The band has rapidly gained popularity both domestically and internationally, with notable releases that showcase their talent for crafting catchy hooks and powerful beats, elements that have become synonymous with their sound. Among their distinguished works are tracks like "Shadow is the Light," which served as the opening theme for the anime "The Ones Within - Genome," and "Hibana," which was chosen as the ending theme for the anime "Golden Kamuy." Not only have they impressed with their original songs in Japanese, but they have also engaged a wider audience with English versions of their tracks such as "Shadow is the Light (English ver.)," "Hibana (English ver.)," and "SINGularity (ENGLISH EDITION)." With each release, from tracks like "LEVEL" and "Perfect Lies" to introspective songs like "Setsuna," THE SIXTH LIE continues to push boundaries and solidify their place in the modern music landscape.
