Starting out as an indie band, Sekai no Owari performed their first live concert at Club Earth with 15 people attending. The band self-produced their first demo, Sekai no Owari, with a limited edition of 1,000 copies. Satoshi Fukase, vocalist, named the band Sekai no Owari
because "Once you've experienced the bottom (the negative side of your
life), you have to find a way to go up (the positive side). So I named
my band End of the World to create the strength [I needed] through the music.
Sekai no Owari started to become popular in the Japanese indie rock
scene in 2010. Their debut limited single, "Maboroshi no Inochi", was
released in February . Their single "Earth" was released in April. In
November, their second single, "Tenshi to Akuma / Fantasy", was released
and became the theme song of a Japanese network TV program.
And now, they have a new album... Tree is an album by Japanese rock band Sekai no Owari. It was released on January 14, 2015. It debuted at number one on the weekly Oricon Albums Chart, with 247,964 copies sold..
