Shin Takara Jima - サカナクション

Sakanaction (サカナクション) are a Japanese rock band from Sapporo, Hokkaido, Japan, formed in 2005. Their music is a mix of alternative rock, electronic, pop, and New Wave styles; thus, it is difficult to classify this band under one category. The band consists of five members: Yamaguchi Ichiro (vocals & guitar), Iwadera Motoharu (guitar), Kusakari Ami (bass), Okazaki Emi (keyboard), and Ejima Keiichi (drums). To them the fish symbolism reflects their wish to act quickly and lightly, like fish in the sea, without fearing changes in the music scene. Sakanaction = Sakana (fish) + Action.
