It consists of leader, vocalist, and guitarist 秋田ひろむ (Hiromu Akita), and keyboardist 豊川真奈美 (Manami Toyokawa). Composer/arranger 出羽良彰 (Yoshiaki Dewa) also contributes to the band.
In December 2009, they released an album 0. as a limited release of 500 copies in Aomori. Since the album created a lot of buzz and they were flooded with inquiries, they eventually released the album nationwide as 0.6.
As the intense worldview of their lyrics grabbed the attention of listeners with quick ears, they made a major debut with 爆弾の作り方 (How to Make a Bomb) released from Sony Music Associated Records in June 2010.
“a band led by Hiromu Akita from Aomori”
It was the only information officially shared about the band, but they have expanded their fan base by word of mouth, mostly through the Internet, to such an extent that their latest album ねえママ あなたの言うとおり (Hey Mom, It's Just as You Say) went up to number 8 in the Oricon weekly album chart.
When performing live, they have a unique style where they play behind a screen that covers the whole stage and projects various images to go along with the music. Their shows have been much talked about, and some say it gives the audience a sense of watching a film and enjoying live music at the same time.
They are also known as their music videos with CG animation and have won a variety of awards worldwide.
In 2010, their music video for 夏を待っていました ("Waiting for the Summer") won the Excellence Award at the 14th Japan Media Arts Festival. amazarashi’s 夏を待っていました and サカナクション's アルクアラウンド were the only music videos that won the awards that year.
Furthermore, they have attracted interest throughout the world as they won prizes at Annecy International Animated Film Festival (originally a part of Cannes Film Festival) in France, SIGGRAPH ASIA 2011 (the world’s biggest computer graphics event), one dot zero 2011 (a digital animation festival in London), and more.

amazarashi Lyrics
切れかけた街灯に照らされて
明滅繰り返す人々の影
ゴムの匂いと空気の湿り気
静寂と呼ぶには はなはだ多弁
したがって 定まらぬ視点
星を滑って 東北に流転
蛾が群がって どうせ無駄だって
夢に焼け落ちて あとは何もねえ
行き先のない乗車券
此岸の終わりの夕景
地球の裏の荒野へ
早く連れてってくれ
夏の庭に犬の骨 死屍累々の日付
それを踏んづけて明日へ
気管支炎の音符で
血を吐くまでは歌え
放射状 北の山背
そこに咲いた花でさえ
冒涜は許されて
僕は舌打ちをしたこの街へ
いや 舌打ちしたのは街の方で
砂場に子供らの神話体系
その一粒ごと神は宿って
絡まって 切れぬ社会性
みだりに越えて 唾を吐き掛け
我が塞がって 来世疑って
無様に燃えて あとは何もねえ
獣と人の分岐点 命にたかる銀蠅
精子は霊地の巡礼
死ぬには早い降雪
国道沿いのラブホテル
トワイライト純潔で
言葉足らずの夜明け
吃音的な世の果て
それを飲み込んでは咽せる
結露に滴るカーテン
命が今焼け落ちて
車道に冬の銀河系
トラックの荷台に跨がって
歳月が通り過ぎた
交差点で横転して 血を流していた
窓越しにそれを見ていたら
命がじりじりと焦げる音を聞いた
スピードと摩擦 火花を散らして
スピードと摩擦 内臓を焦がして
体内に発車の汽笛
血液は逃避の路線
旅立っては近づいて
離れてくのはどうして?
苛立ちは尚叫んで
ひび割れた今日の風景
地表にうがつささくれ
二月は無垢な難破船
スピードと摩擦 内臓を焦がして
明滅繰り返す人々の影
ゴムの匂いと空気の湿り気
静寂と呼ぶには はなはだ多弁
したがって 定まらぬ視点
星を滑って 東北に流転
蛾が群がって どうせ無駄だって
夢に焼け落ちて あとは何もねえ
此岸の終わりの夕景
地球の裏の荒野へ
早く連れてってくれ
