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.

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