ABOUT ONE OK ROCK:
With billions of worldwide streams, global sales in excess of 3 million, and dozens of international gold and platinum certifications, ONE OK ROCK have emerged as a undeniable planetary phenomenon for their distinctive and original brand of 21st century rock, fusing alternative, hardcore, emo, electronic pop, and more into a captivatingly modern sound and vision all their own. Founded in 2005, the Tokyo-based quartet —Taka (vocals), Toru (guitar), Tomoya (drums), and Ryota (bass) — proved an immediate sensation at home in Japan, where they have earned 11 consecutive Top 5 albums and three #1 debuts on the Japanese Top Albums Chart. By 2013, ONE OK ROCK had begun expanding their global imprint into Asia, Europe, North America, and South America with sold-out headline shows and festival performances including a hugely successful run on 2014’s 18-city Vans Warped Tour. 2015 saw the release of 35xxxv, the band’s seventh studio album and first to enter Billboard music charts in the US, including #1 on the “World Albums” chart. ONE OK ROCK made their Fueled By Ramen debut with 2018’s Ambitions, which proved the world’s best-selling album in the week following its release. 2019’s Eye of the Storm saw the band pushing their musical approach into new directions, a sonic progression that continued with 2022’s Luxury Disease, the latter of which included collaborations with Panic! At The Disco’s Brendon Urie, Teddy Swims, members of Bring Me The Horizon and 5 Seconds of Summer, and longtime fan Ed Sheeran, with whom they co-wrote the worldwide hit single, “Renegades.” Along with their constantly evolving recorded output, ONE OK ROCK have become one of the planet’s most popular and dynamic live acts with multiple sold-out world headline tours, top-billed performances at a variety of international festivals, and special guest runs alongside such diverse artists as Ed Sheeran, Smashing Pumpkins, Muse, All Time Low, and more. The winner of countless accolades and honors at home — as well as MTV Europe Music Awards’ 2016 “Best Japanese Act” — ONE OK ROCK have been featured on a range of film, TV, anime, and video game soundtracks. Now, with the chart-topping 2025 release of Detox (as well as the truly epic Detox World Tour), ONE OK ROCK are once again breaking new musical ground while continuing to affirm their place among the most inventive and beloved rock bands in the world today.ABOUT PALEDUSK:
