They performed at big music festivals overseas including SONISPHERE FESTIVAL, SXSW and the Warped Tour.
They also performed live in the studio for BBC RADIO 1’s popular show “Rock Show.”
They were pioneers of the loud punk scene in the 2000s.
However in 2016, they disbanded suddenly.
The members of FACT Hiro (Voc,) Kazuki (Gtr &Voc) and Takahiro (Gtr &Vo) formed the new band SHADOWS. SHADOWS debuted in March 2016 with the EP, “Extrance,”. They performed at PUNK SPRING in April and SUMMER SONIC 2016 in August.
In August, they released their 2nd EP “Progress” which featured a melodic, hard core sound reminiscent of their 90’s origin as the pioneer of the post 2000s punk scene.

ＳＨＡＤＯＷＳ Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Where have they gone
I don't really care,
just leave 'em there
Blind wind, your mind,
Through my hands,
Where'd you go?
I hear the sound
Where'd you go
Where will you go
My heart's losing sight
I can't find myself
I don't really care,
just leave me here
Looking for the ending all alone
Where'd you go
I hear the sound
The sound of sirens
Where'd you go
Where will you go
I don't belong here,
but I wish I...
I always feel your sound
run through the grass
I don't hear anything
but the sound of the crowd
I'm always seeking
for the way back home
The lyrics in SＨＡＤＯＷＳ' "Sirens" embody yearning and confusion, as the singer is searching for something, but is unable to find it. The flashing lights are indicative of an uncontrollable and chaotic mind, and the singer appears to be at a loss as to how to handle it. This may be why they don't care and just want to leave the thoughts where they are.
The next line, "Blind wind, your mind, through my hands," could be interpreted as the singer trying to grasp onto something tangible to ground themselves, but ultimately being unsuccessful as their thoughts and emotions continue to elude their grasp. The sound of sirens could either be an actual sound, or a metaphor for the singer's internal chaos. They ask "Where'd you go? Where will you go?" suggesting that they are searching for something or someone that has gone missing or left them.
In the second verse, the search continues as the singer struggles to find themselves and their place in the world. The line "I don't belong here, but I wish I..." ends abruptly, suggesting that the singer is unsure of what they want. They may want to go home, but they're not sure where that is or how to get there.
Overall, "Sirens" seems to be a song about the confusion and uncertainty that comes with a lack of direction or purpose in life. The sound of sirens could represent the call of something unknown that the singer is striving for, but is unable to find.
