Radwimps

Radwimps formed in 2001 in Kanagawa, Japan during their first year of high school.{{cite web | url=http://artist.cdjournal.com/a/radwimps/151723 | title=RADWIMPS アーティスト・プロフィール |trans-title=Radwimps Artist Profile | work=CDJournal |language=ja | access-date=1 February 2011}}{{cite web | title=RADWIMPS 特集 |trans-title=Radwimps Feature | url=http://www.neowing.co.jp/music/essentials/radwimps/index.html | work=Neowing |language=ja | year=2006 | access-date=9 February 2011}} The five original members had been friends since middle school.{{cite web | url=http://www.tsutaya.co.jp/artist/00016522.html | script-title=ja:基本情報 - RADWIMPS | trans-title=Basic Information: Radwimps | work=Tsutaya | language=ja | access-date=1 February 2011 | archive-date=19 April 2014 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140419164643/http://www.tsutaya.co.jp/artist/00016522.html | url-status=dead }} Lead vocalist Yojiro Noda first became interested in music after hearing Oasis in middle school, when he would try to remember the guitar chords and sing to Oasis songs.{{cite web | url=http://www.radwimps.jp/biography.html | title=Biography | work=radwimps.jp |language=ja | date=10 April 2008 | access-date=1 February 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060112055253/http://www.radwimps.jp/biography.html |archive-date=12 January 2006}}

The band's activities were initially centred on Yokohama, and their first performance took place on BB Street in Kannai district on 5 February 2002. At this point, guitarist Akira Kuwahara dropped out of high school in order to focus on the band. In September and August 2002, Radwimps partook in the Yokohama High School Music Festival and eventually won the grand prize for the competition with the song "Moshi mo".{{cite web | url=http://www.sunphonix.co.jp/yhmf/history/2002.html | title=History YHMF2002 決戦大会審査結果 |trans-title=History: YHMF 2002 final event judging results | work=Yokohama High School Music Festival |language=ja | year=2003 | access-date=1 February 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110627085837/http://www.sunphonix.co.jp/yhmf/history/2002.html | url-status=dead |archive-date=27 June 2011}} "Moshi mo" was released as the band's debut single in May 2003, with 10,000 copies pressed and sold for 100 yen each. Following this single, Radwimps toured the Yokohama area, including a performance as the sole act at Yokohama's Club 24West. The band released their debut album, Radwimps, in July through independent label Newtraxx, featuring songs they wrote in middle school. The following August, after a guest appearance at the Yokohama High School Music Festival, the band went on hiatus for Noda and other members to focus on their school exams.

Radwimps returned from hiatus in March 2004, though Kei Asō, Yūsuke Saiki, and Akio Shibafumi did not rejoin the group. To replace the musicians, the band added acquaintances, such as drummer Satoshi Yamaguchi and bassist Yusuke Takeda. Radwimps immediately began recording new songs, and by July had released a second single, "Kiseki", and performed a three-month Japan-wide tour. Right after the end of the tour, the band started work on their second album, Radwimps 2: Hatten Tojō, which was finalized by the end of the year and released in March. Directly after the release, the group departed on a five-month {{nihongo|Radwimps Haruna Tour|はるなっTOUR}} and also performed at high-profile summer music festivals, such as Setstock, Rock in Japan, and Summer Sonic. During this time, the band released a third single, "Hexun / Kanashi", which was their first charting release.{{cite web | title=アーティスト： RADWIMPS | url=http://ranking.oricon.co.jp/free_contents/search/search.asp?artcd=321049&artist=%82q%82%60%82c%82v%82h%82l%82o%82r&ordt=sle&bs=all&bs2=1 | work=Oricon |language=ja | access-date=19 January 2011}}

In November 2005, the band made their major debut under Toshiba EMI, with the single "Nijūgoko-me no Senshokutai", followed by "EDP (Tonde Hi ni Iru Natsu no Kimi)" in January, both of which rose to the top 50. In shifting to a major label, Noda explained that the band took the same stance as they had as an independent group, and that "If we thought we were bigger on a major label, that would have been a big mistake".{{cite web | title=Special Interview Radwimps | url=http://www.oricon.co.jp/music/interview/060118_03.html | work=Oricon |language=ja | date=18 January 2006 | access-date=9 February 2011}} The band's third and first major-label album, Radwimps 3: Mujintō ni Motte Ikiwasureta Ichimai, regraded 3 in March 2006, was a landmark in establishing their popularity, debuting at number 13 on Oricon's album charts. Radwimps 3 saw a change in the band's musical style, allowing them to be more experimental in their sound.{{cite web | title=メジャー・デビュー後、2枚のシングルを経て、ついに2/15にフル・アルバムをリリースした4ピース・バンドRADWIMPSを直撃! | trans-title=Direct hit by Radwimps, a four piece band who, after a major debut and two singles, have finally released a full album on February 15! | url=http://www.vibe-net.com/musicinfo/interview/interview_one.html?artist=030005271&interview=284 | work=Vibe-Net | language=ja | date=28 February 2006 | access-date=9 February 2011 | archive-date=10 September 2016 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160910231527/http://www.vibe-net.com/musicinfo/interview/interview_one.html?artist=030005271&interview=284 | url-status=usurped }}

By the end of 2006, the band's popularity had increased significantly: their album Radwimps 4: Okazu no Gohan, led by the top-20 singles "Futarigoto" and "Yūshinron" and the top-5 "Setsuna Rensa", debuted at number five and had an initial shipment of more than 100,000 copies.{{cite web | script-title=ja:ゴールド等認定作品一覧 2006年12月 |trans-title=Works Receiving Certifications List (Gold, etc) (December 2006) | url=http://www.riaj.or.jp/data/others/gold/200612.html | work=RIAJ |language=ja | date=10 January 2007 | access-date=5 February 2011}} At this time, the band's older releases, such as Radwimps, Radwimps 2, and "Kiseki", began charting for the first time, with Radwimps eventually being certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of Japan.{{cite web | script-title=ja:ゴールド等認定作品一覧 2008年03月 |trans-title=Works Receiving Certifications List (Gold, etc) (March 2008) | url=http://www.riaj.or.jp/data/others/gold/200803.html | work=RIAJ |language=ja | date=10 April 2008 | access-date=19 January 2011}} In the next three years, both Radwimps and Radwimps 2 charted for approximately 100 weeks, and as of early 2011, Radwimps 3 and Radwimps 4 still continued to chart.

In 2008, the band achieved their first number-one single, with "Order Made", on the Oricon charts. Their 2009 album, Altocolony no Teiri, sold around 213,000 copies in its first week, debuting at number two on the Oricon charts.{{cite web | title=KAT-TUN、1stシングルから10作連続1位 |trans-title=KAT-TUN achieves 10 consecutive number-ones since their 1st single | url=http://www.oricon.co.jp/news/confidence/64174/full/| work=Oricon |language=ja | date=17 March 2009 | access-date=14 February 2011}} The band achieved their second Oricon number-one single, "Dada", in 2011.

Almost all of Noda's lyrics are based on events he has experienced, or nonfictional events. "Enren" from Radwimps 4: Okazu no Gohan, released in 2006, was the first fictional-themed song Noda wrote since the band formed.{{cite web | title=Deep Dive - Radwimps | url=https://www.amazon.co.jp/gp/feature.html?docId=1000014546 | work=Amazon |language=ja | year=2006 | access-date=9 February 2011}}
