Background notes
Archive material and source history
Jap formed in 2004 with vocalist Hitoshi Sakuma and guitarist Takuya Akaishi. They spent their early years touring and putting out independent albums before landing a collaboration with the anime series 'Sengoku Basara' in 2009. The show's theme song, also called 'Sengoku Basara,' became their breakthrough track.
That song opened doors for more work in anime and games. Their music has appeared in series like 'Gundam Build Divers' and 'Garo,' and in the video game 'Devil May Cry 5.' The band's lineup includes bassist Masami Kawaguchi and drummer Kensuke Manabe alongside the founding members.
