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]

無情な夜空に 響かす風景
なんだって 悲しんで 膝抱えて
震えてしまう日だってあんだよ
抑えきれない
感情のままゆらす ゆりかご
憂いの壁 we don't stop it now
今 煩悩を 葬れ 想像以上の無礼
爆音で yeah we don't stop it now
夕立みたいな 僕のオルタネイト
不揃いなまま弾くサイレンス
なんだって バカやって 腹抱えて
笑って過ごす日だって必要
走り出せ 未完成なままの僕らで
いざ衝動よ ついて来い 総動員で break
憂いの壁 we don't stop it now
今 煩悩を 葬れ 想像以上の無礼
爆音で yeah we don't stop it now
衝動神経伝達で行け
なんだって 悲しんで 膝抱えて
震えてしまう日だってあんだよ
抑えきれない

The lyrics to FLOW's song "PULSE" describe a feeling of intense emotion, expressed through metaphors of sound and nature. The first verse talks about the singer's love interest, using the metaphor of their harmonics sounding like crying. The emotion is contrasted with the cold, unfeeling night sky. The second verse describes the singer playing their guitar, with the sound uneven like a passing storm. The metaphor of laughter being necessary even on sad days is introduced. The chorus speaks of following one's impulses and breaking down the walls of sorrow, burying desires and letting loose with loud music.
The idea throughout the song seems to be one of embracing a raw, unfettered sense of emotion, breaking down barriers and expressing oneself honestly without fear of judgment. The metaphors of crying, trembling, and running in an unfinished state all convey a sense of vulnerability and risk-taking. The repetition of the refrain "we don't stop it now" throughout the chorus could be interpreted as a call to live life without hesitation and to pursue one's desires with abandon.
Overall, the lyrics to "PULSE" evoke a sense of urgency and passionate energy, encouraging listeners to embrace their emotions and impulses fully.
