About sakanaction
Sakanaction (Japanese: サカナクション, Hepburn: Sakanakushon; stylised in all lowercase) is a Japanese rock band from Sapporo, Hokkaido. Their music is a fusion of alternative rock, electronic, pop, and new wave styles. The band consists of five members: Ichiro Yamaguchi, Motoharu Iwadera, Ami Kusakari, Emi Okazaki, and Keiichi Ejima.
The name Sakanaction is a portmanteau of sakana (Japanese for "fish") and "action".
