History
The band was formed in 2004 by vocalist Shō Kiryūin and guitarist Yutaka Kyan. The band's concept was "Hyper Giga Hybrid Super Subculture Visual Rock". Teppei Chimatsuri joined as the first drummer and keyboardist; when he left later, Dankichi Tenkujō took over as drummer. Jun Utahiroba joined as bassist on April 22, 2007. On April 5, 2009, Dankichi left the band, and on April 10, 2009, Kenji Darvish joined as a drummer.
None of the members except Shō Kiryūin play instruments. The band's studio recordings are done by professional musicians, as attested to by the group members themselves. Shō Kiryūin writes the music and lyrics, and creates the arrangements with Tatsuo of Everset. In concert, the band members don't play their instruments; instead they dance and perform and act out dramas with the aid of videos. Shō Kiryūin is the only one who always sings live. The band's creative output, including songs, music videos, promotional videos and performances, contains parodies of famous bands, artists, manga and other aspects of Japanese popular culture.
Their first single, "Dakishimete Shwarz", was released on 1 May 2008, followed by four more consecutive singles. Their first two albums, "The Golden J-POPS" and "Renai Shuukyouron" were put on sale on December 24, 2007, and their first live DVD was released that same day. In 2009 Golden Bomber had 12 consecutive one-man concerts on the 1st day of each month and performed a country-wide 4646 tour. Their most famous song, "Memeshikute", was released as single on 21 October 2009.
Through 2010 they continued putting on their one-man concerts during the Oneman Kowai, and Zenryoku Baka tours, and they had a consecutive 12 month song releases on dwango.jp. All the songs released on dwango were No. 1 in dwango daily rankings. In 2010 the band was due to perform in Shanghai, China during Expo 2010, but the performance was cancelled.
The popularity of the band increased significantly through 2010. By the end of the year, Golden Bomber had received major debut offers from seven companies, but rejected them all, preferring to remain a "good-for-nothing" indie band out of consideration for feelings of their fans."Mata Kimi ni Bangou wo Kikenakatta" single reached No. 4 on Oricon weekly charts and was ranked No. 3 in Oricon 2010 year top selling indies singles chart. "Shimohanki Best" album was ranked No. 3 in Oricon weekly charts.
In 2011 Golden Bomber continued with the "Life is All Right" spring national tour (the initial name of the tour, "Isshou Baka (Lifetime Idiot)" was changed due to the earthquake and tsunami in Japan). In July 2011 Golden Bomber performed at Japan Expo in Paris, France, and in August played two live shows in Seoul, South Korea. "Yareba Dekiru Ko" national tour is scheduled for autumn 2011.
On 14 and 15 January 2012 Golden Bomber performed in Nippon Budokan, and on 21 January - in Osaka-jō Hall.
Golden Bomber also performed for 2 days at the Yokohama Arena on 17 and 18 June 2012. On 18 June 2012 they released their first international album: "The Golden Best" in the UK, USA, France, Germany, Taiwan and Korea.
Golden Bomber also hosts a program on Nico Nico Douga. The members have collaborated with different artists not only from music, but also from the fashion industry, with different fashion brands and game producers.
