Is there already a thread for this??
Cuz I didn't see any.

Man, the first time I heard UVERworld's "D-technolife" on my friend's iPod,
i was like "OMGSH! OMGSH! Who sang this!?!?"
and yeah. it was an ending theme for Bleach !!!
I was hoping to find more on this group
Does anyone know anything else about UVERworld???
If you do, please share them here!!
(Or gimme the link to their Official Soompi link if there's one)

Here's what I have right now:

---------------------------------------------------------

BIOGRAPHY
The five-member band known as "UVERworld" first formed in 2003, and were known as "Sangoku Road." The band originally consisted of seven members, and released a demo CD, which ended up selling 3,000 copies. Unfortunately, two of the band members, a saxophonist and another vocalist, left the group. After their departure, the band renamed itself to "UVERworld."

2005 was the year that the band signed with the label gr8! records, which is under Sony Music Records. The band made their debut with the single "D-tecnoLife," which served as the 2nd opening theme song for the anime "BLEACH". After three months UVERworld's second single, "CHANCE!" was an opening theme for the PSP game "BLEACH~Heat the Soul 2~" and the last single released on 2005.

On January 25, 2006 "just Melody", their third single, ended up at #17 on the Oricon charts. Three weeks later "UVERworld's" 1st album "Timeless" was released, breaking the top 10 at #5 and selling 60,000 copies. After a three month break, "UVERworld" released "Colors of the Heart" as the 3rd opening theme for "BLOOD+", an anime series based on the animated movie, "Blood: The Last Vampire", and the Opening of the Namco game Tales of Eternia Online . The single debut at #3 and is the highest position a "UVERworld" single has ever reached. Their 5th single, entitled "SHAMROCK", was released on August 2nd. UVERworld 6th Single will be released on November 15, entitled "Kimi No Suki na Uta", the song was used as the theme song to the TBS TV show Koi Suru Hanikami! or Honey Coming! from October until December.

UVERworld is one of my favorite bands happy.gif I want to buy the Special Edition release of their album 'cause I didn't get the chance to pick up the CD+DVD version the first time around. "CHANCE!" and "Colors of the Heart" are my two favorite songs by them smile.gif Though, I like all of their songs. I love their sound.

Naux: yeah yeah!! My favorite song is Colors of the Heart too!!! XD I really like their sound too!

They're so different from other jrock bands like L'arc en ciel, Glay and etc. The vocals of those bands seem to vibrate too much and it just sounds so creepy and different XD (even though I still listen to L'arc en ciel)

UVERworld is refreshing. ^^

cheekY bAnaNa: Yeah i can't wait to buy their new album either!! XD!!

あい: uh huh, even though me fav song is Colors of the Heart, I like all of their songs X] u should download their other songs when you have the time! Use the link I posted up there! =]

This is probably my fave j-rock band. I have their first album, and looks like I'll be buying it again since the special edition will come with a DVD with music videos of their first three singles biggrin.gif

XD i agree wit u guys~ lol Takuya has a LOVELY voice XDDD (hehe..) Not too "heavy/ deep/ low/ rich" and not too high (like many Japanese male singers) it's just right! XD

im so glad so many of you have heard of this band!
and that so many of those who haven't heard it before but heard it now, like it too!!!
thanks for trying them out haha

I'm planning to buy their newest album and give it to my friend as a present for Christmas! X3

あい: XD i know wat u mean~ It definitely has SOME pop in it since it's not like heavy rock or anything, and i think that's why it's so refreshing and nothing near emo or anything XD thanks for dl-ing!!!

me always happy to share download links with you guys~ ^3^
But if that link I gave you, isn't enough, try JPOP.BWW2
you have to register but it's absolutely free.
Once you log in, under SEARCH, type in "UVERworld" for ARTIST
and you should be able to find their songs there as well.
(Let's hope so. XD)

Can anyone confirum whether this address is correct?:

106-0044 Minatoku Higashiazabu 3-4-18 Ruuto Higashiazabu Biru 9F
UVERworld Ate

Someone asked me to translate that from their homepage awhile ago, but I had to use a dictionary for some of the Kanji, so I'm not sure if it's 100% correct sweatingbullets.gif

By the way, anyone want the lyrics to their new song? Romanized them the other day w00t.gif


keiharu - UVERworld was in the issue of Arena37 I bought a few months ago. I don't have a scanner, but I could try to talk a friend into scanning in some pictures of them for you to use in this thread. Can't guarantee anything, but I'll try smile.gif
