Ryutaro and Tadashi wanted to combine two words to form the band name; something artificial and something natural. After trying a few combinations, they decided on ‘Plastic Tree’. Formerly, there were rumours floating around the web about the band’s name coming from Fake Plastic Trees but this was always disputed due to timing inconsistencies.
In the beginning, Plastic Tree were influenced greatly by The Cure. There was also a large britrock influence. Plastic Tree played a mix of indie rock, punk, and heavier grunge, characterized by Ryutaro’s generic Visual Kei voice and gloomy lyrics. They went through a period where they played more pop-rock and radio-style rock music, although they have recently returned from lighter music to their original roots.
In July 2006, Plastic Tree embarked on their first world tour that took them to Germany, France and Finland.
On the 23rd of February 2009, Sasabuchi Hiroshi left the band and was later replaced by Satou Kenken..

ひとりで僕を探しに出かけた
おととい読んだ絵本と
かなりずれてる世界で
外が白くなりだす
僕をいつか照らしはじめた
もうすぐ行かなきゃ
僕はにやけてて不自然
右側の壁 きらいな
ことばが四つ揺れてる 見て
外が白くなりだす
僕をいつか照らしはじめた
もうすぐ行かなきゃ
「さよなら。」
ビルの上で 僕は
破いた写真を ばらまいて
おどけたままで 手をふりながら
オレンジ色のなか つぶやくんだ
外が白くなりだす
僕をいつか照らしはじめたなら
もうすぐ行かなくちゃ
「さよなら。」
ビルの上で 僕は
破いた写真を ばらまいて
おどけたままで 手をふりながら
オレンジ色のなか つぶやいたんだ
僕の居場所
嘘だったみたいになくなった
誰からも嫌われた僕が
いつも いつまでも
オレンジ色の世界で つぶやくんだ
The lyrics to Plastic Tree's song "トランスオレンジ" ("Trans Orange") depict a person who sets out alone on a Sunday morning to find themselves. They are detached from the world they read about in a picture book two days ago, feeling a significant gap between their reality and that idealized world. As the outside starts turning white, reflecting the beginning of a new day, they realize that the world will soon start illuminating them too, indicating that they must move on. They board a bus with peeling paint, feeling awkwardly smug, and notice four words swaying on the right side wall that they dislike. As the outside turns white, their journey towards self-discovery is imminent, and they must bid farewell.
On top of a building, they scatter torn photographs while acting playful, waving their hand, and murmuring in the midst of an orange-tinted scene. The outside is turning white, and they reflect that if the world will eventually begin shedding light on them, they must depart soon and say goodbye. The lyrics end with the singer disappearing, as their place of belonging, seemingly like a lie, has vanished. Despite being hated by everyone, they continue to murmur in the orange-tinted world, forever.
