OKAMOTO’S hit and popular songs

Let me introduce some songs by OKAMOTO’S, a rock band highly regarded by hardcore music fans.

They’ve won popularity for their standout musicianship and cool tracks that channel punk and rock energy.

All the members go by the surname “Okamoto.” This is partly because they all admire Taro Okamoto, and partly as a nod to the RAMONES, who all used the same last name.

It’s also well-known that bassist Hama Okamoto is the eldest son of Masatoshi Hamada from the comedy duo Downtown.

Thanks to his exceptional skill, he’s active not only in OKAMOTO’S but also widely recognized as a bassist in other projects.

Now, please enjoy a selection of OKAMOTO’S tracks that resonate with hardcore music aficionados.

INSANE MANOKAMOTO’S

It’s a sound that could only come from those born in the Heisei era! A track crammed with everything from late-1960s garage rock to the early-2000s rock ’n’ roll revival.

With a psychedelic guitar riff and a pub-rock-style harp used in a fresh way, it proves this isn’t just a retread of old music.
