MAXIMUM THE HORMONE

MAXIMUM THE HORMONE is a band that defies classification, often described as a wild blend of hardcore punk, metal, and alternative rock, with diverse and unique elements that can shift from punishingly heavy rifts to melodic, almost pop-like moments. Founded in Hachioji, Tokyo, in 1998, the group is composed of Daisuke-han (vocals), Maximum the Ryo-kun (guitar and vocals), Ue-chan (bass), and Nao (drums and vocals). They've earned acclaim for their energetic live shows and the seamless weaving of humor and satire into their lyrics and performances.

Their discography is a testament to their versatility and commitment to evolving their sound. Celebrated albums like "Bu-ikikaesu" (2007) and "Yoshu Fukushu" (2013) have garnered them a cult following not just in Japan, but around the world. The tracks like "これからの麺カタコッテリの話をしよう" showcase their ability to merge aggressive musicality with catchy, anthem-like moments. Meanwhile, TV edits like "HAWATARI NIOKU CENTI" and "KAMIGAMI-神噛-" reflect their impact on Japanese pop culture, having contributed to anime soundtracks and gaining a fan base among anime enthusiasts. MAXIMUM THE HORMONE continues to be a powerhouse on the music scene, revered for their uncompromising sound and their bold refusal to be pigeonholed into a single genre.
