The group's base was created in 1993 when brothers Kōshi (elder: vocals) and Take (younger: guitar) began playing together. They formed Flow in 1998, and were eventually joined by Keigo (vocals), Gotō (bass) and Iwasaki (drums; joined in 2000). In 2001, the band released its first maxi single, "Flow #0". The group then released two mini-albums within the same year, both of which took nationwide indie charts by storm. "Okuru Kotoba", Flow's first cover single, was released in January 2003. It remained on the Oricon indie chart for seven consecutive weeks and also hit an impressive No. 6 on the overall singles chart. In the spring of that year, their first full-scale album Splash!!! debuted at No. 2. In July 2003, Flow released the single "Blaster" on a major label, Ki/oon Records. In April 2004, they released "Go!!!", which stayed on the Oricon Top 10 Chart for three weeks. In May 2004, Flow released their first major album Game.

A string of singles followed and in July 2005 the band released its third album, Golden Coast. Since the release of Golden Coast, Flow has released two singles with new A-sides, but one of these ("Around the World/Kandata") was a double A-side release. "Colors" is the band's fourth single. The songs "Go!!!" and "Re:member" both served as opening themes to the anime series Naruto. "Days" was the first opening for Bones' Eureka Seven anime, and "Realize" was the opening for the PlayStation 2 video games based on the same series. Flow performed live in America for the first time in Dallas, Texas on September 2, 2006 at Anime Fest which was held at the Hyatt Hotel and Convention center in downtown Dallas. Flow performed "Colors" in 2006, the first opening for Sunrise's original series, Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion.

Their song "Answer" is the first opening theme for the live action Japanese drama Tantei Gakuen Q. They performed "Night Parade" with the hip-hop band Home Made Kazoku. In February 2008, they released a new single entitled "Arigatō", followed by Persona -trinity soul-'s new opening, "Word of the Voice" in June 2008. They performed Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion R2's second opening theme "World End" released in 2008. In 2009, the band performed "Sign", the sixth opening for Naruto Shippuden. The band released a B-side compilation album on November 4, 2009. Their single "Calling" was featured as the ending for the anime Heroman. Flow returned to North America to perform at Anime Central, in Rosemont, Illinois on May 20, 2011, and FanimeCon in San Jose, California on May 28, 2010 and in May 2011. Their song "Hey!!" was the third opening theme for the anime Beelzebub and the song "Bravelue" was used as the second opening theme for the anime Eureka Seven AO. They will provide a cover of "Cha-La Head-Cha-La" as the main theme song for the film Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods; the song, coupled with an insert song from the film, will be released as a double A-side single on March 20, 2013.[1]

LEATHER FACE
Flow Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

一人にならない為嘘をついて
その嘘を本当に
する為また嘘をつく
それでも僕はまだ
なぜか孤独の一歩手前にいる
負のスパイラルの中
抜け出したい抜け出せない
流されて行く

溶け出した夜に吠える
噛み付いて引き裂いて
剥がされて行く
ざらついた僕のレザーフェイス
同じ顔みんな同じ話ただ
街も人もみんな
不気味な程みんな
逃げ出したい逃げ出せない
飲み込まれてく
はみ出した世界が歪む
噛み付いて引き裂いて
剥がされて行く
屍のようなレザーフェイス

怯えては遠ざけた手触りの無い
実体を暴き出すよ
抜け出したい抜け出せない
流されて行く
溶け出した漂流の果てに
噛み付いて引き裂いて
剥がされて行く

ゆっくりと視界が開く
その先に見えたのは...

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Flow's song "Leather Face" explore themes of loneliness and the desperate need for connection. The singer admits to lying in order to avoid being alone, and then lies again to make those lies a reality. Despite this, they still find themselves on the brink of loneliness, trapped in a negative spiral. The lyrics describe the feeling of being swept away by life's events and the sense of being unable to break free. The chorus compares everyone in the world to the singer's own "leather face," suggesting a shared sense of alienation and fear.

The second verse introduces a sense of vulnerability, as the singer confesses to being afraid of those things they cannot touch or understand. They express a desire to break free from their situation, to become untethered from the things that weigh them down. The final lines hint at a glimmer of hope, as the singer's vision begins to clear and they see something new on the horizon.

Overall, the lyrics to "Leather Face" are a powerful exploration of loneliness and the struggle to find connection in an increasingly isolating world. Through its stark imagery and haunting melody, the song captures the feeling of being lost in a sea of faces, struggling to carve out a sense of self in a world that seems bent on erasing individuality.

Line by Line Meaning

To avoid being alone, I tell lies
And then those lies become my reality

So I have to tell more lies to make them true
Despite it all, I'm still standing on the brink of loneliness

Trapped in a negative spiral
I want to escape, but I can't

I'm being carried away
I howl into the night that has dissolved

Biting and tearing
Being peeled away

My rough leather face
Everyone has the same face and the same story

The city and its people are all uncanny
I want to run away, but I can't

I'm being swallowed up
The world where I don't fit in distorts

Biting and tearing
Being peeled away

A leather face like a corpse
I reveal the texture of intangibility that I kept at bay out of fear

I want to escape, but I can't
I'm being carried away
