With their unique style of psychedelic garage and a mix of R&B, Okamoto's have been likened to The Rolling Stones, The Who and The Stooges.
Okamoto's come with a message, barely 19 and they already have the fire and passion to take over the world questioning the forefathers of Rock itself. They do not simply know, but have the courage to ask Bob Dylan if in fact " The times have actually changed" and of course still maintain the punk rock mentality in asking why are they not learning about rock in school. They have the guts of fearless teenagers, scaring us one adult at a time. Live shows that make the blood curdle at the fact that they have only just graduated from high school, the old are afraid, the young are eating it up. They really are a horrifying band!
June of 2009 saw them release their debut album "Here are Okamoto's" and with over 100 live shows under their belt, Okamoto's are going to just get better and scarier with every step they take. So get on that "Rocket to Japan" because everyone is going to wanna dance with these guys

OKAMOTO'S Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I wanna see you once again, in my house (in my house)
そしたら俺は what you, what you gonna do?
ギター弾いて できた歌を聞かすよ (聞かすよ)
自分がどれだけ変わらなくても 時代は変わり続ける
昨日できた 新しい歌が
明日には古くて 追いつきたくて
捨てて 辞めて 諦めて
あなたとただ
マクドナルド行きたい行きたい
ダブチーとか食べたい食べたい
たまには いいじゃないか たまには
Just think about it
お金とかもなくてなくて
それでも楽しくてしくて
あの頃 思い出すね あの頃
Sitting waiting in the kiss & cry, kiss & cry
Someone bring me a drink & fries, drink & fries
(You don't love me)
Tell me now do we kiss or cry? Kiss or cry?
Someone bring me a drink & fries, drink & fries
これが小説 なら残ってる pages (pages)
読みたくなきゃ読まない でもいい (でもいい)
だけど人生は そうもいかない
Still wanna see you, I wanna see you once again
Outside it's raining raining, but you always walk around
人に絡みついていく イバラのような自意識と経験が
できたはずのことも できなくさせて
全て 夢って throw it all away
あなたと今
マクドナルド行きたい行きたい
ダブチーとか食べたい食べたい
たまには いいじゃないか たまには
Just think about it
お金とかもなくてなくて
それでも楽しくてしくて
あの頃 思い出すね あの頃
In the song M by OKAMOTO'S, the singer expresses his desire to see someone again and play them a new song he has written on his guitar. He acknowledges that even though he may not have changed much, the times have continued to change. The lyrics also touch upon the fleeting nature of new music and how quickly it becomes outdated. The singer speaks about feeling out of control and wanting to give up, but also reflects on happier times, such as going to McDonald's and enjoying food with someone. The lyrics mention waiting and wondering whether to kiss or cry, and reflect on the reality that in life, not everything can be left behind like an unfinished novel.
