Uverworld (stylized as UVERworld) is a Japanese rock band consisting of six members and originating from Kusatsu, Shiga. They have released eleven studio albums and over thirty singles and have sold over three million records worldwide.

"Uverworld" is a term coined by the band members, combining the German word "über" (meaning "over") with the English word "world" to form a phrase that means "crossing above the world".[1]

History

[edit]

2000–2005: Beginnings and debut

[edit]

The six-member band known as Uverworld first formed in 2002, and were known as Sound Goku Road, (more popularly known as "Sangoku Road" in the independent music scene).[3][2] The band originally consisted of seven members, and released Prime'03, a demo CD which ended up selling 3,000 copies. Unfortunately, Ryohei, the original lead vocalist, left the band. After Ryohei's departure, Ace∞Trigger renamed himself TAKUYA∞ and they changed the name to UVERworld following Akira's idea. At the band's major debut, the saxophonist Seika was rejected by their record label, and could not debut together with the rest as a full band member. He remained as a support member until his hard-earned return in 2014.

According to an interview with the band, there was another vocalist who left the band. However, this vocalist has not yet been identified. Seika is the only one of the two credited on the demo CD and pictured with very early live photos of the band pre-Uverworld.

The year 2005 was the year that the band signed with the label Gr8! Records, which is under Sony Music Records.[4] The band made their debut with the single "D-tecnolife", which was the second opening theme for the anime Bleach.[5] The single made its debut in the Oricon charts at the fourth spot with 32,000 copies together with Mr. Children's twenty-seventh single, "Yonjigen Four Dimensions" (四次元 Four Dimensions) on the top spot.[6] The single then later dropped to seventh place in the second week with 16,306 copies sold.[7] The third week in the Oricon charts saw the single dropped 2 places to the ninth spot with 13,761 copies.[8] The single lasted five weeks in the Top 30 weekly singles ranking.[9][10] The single's sales and Chaku-Uta Full (着うたフル) downloads were certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of Japan.[11][12]

Three months later, Uverworld's second single, "Chance!" was used as the commercial and opening theme for second PSP game of Bleach: Heat the Soul series.[13] The band's second single first entered the Oricon charts on the fifth spot with 14,150 copies.[14] The single later dropped to the 23rd spot selling 6,360 copies on the second week.[15] The single's ranking remained the same, however the number of copies sold on the third week was fewer than the previous week with 5,495 copies.[16] The single only managed to stay on the Top 30 weekly singles ranking for three weeks.

2006–2008: Timeless, Bugright and Proglution

[edit]

On January 25, 2006, the band's third single "Just Melody" ended up at number-seventeen on the Oricon charts. Three weeks later Uverworld's first album Timeless was released, breaking the Top 10 at number-five and selling 60,000 copies.[17] Seika made a brief return during this album, playing saxophone for track 5, "Yasashisa no Shizuku" (優しさの雫). After a three-month break, Uverworld released "Colors of the Heart" as the third opening theme for Blood+, an anime series based on the animated movie, Blood: The Last Vampire. The single debuted at number-three and was the highest position any of Uverworld's singles had reached up to that time.[18]

Their fifth single, entitled "Shamrock", was released on August 2, 2006, and was used as the ending theme for the drama Dance Drill,[19] a show about a group of girls who aspire to become cheerleaders.

It reached number two on the Oricon charts,[20] which was the second highest place for an Uverworld single so far until it fell off of the charts three and a half weeks later. It sold around 79,659 copies according to the Oricon sales charts.[21]

On February 21, 2007, Uverworld released their second album titled Bugright. It featured the singles Uverworld had released after Timeless.
