I’s

Formed in 2021 by vocalist ano, I’s emerged as a creative outlet distinct from the members’ primary careers. Alongside ano, the lineup includes guitarist Takuya Nakayama, bassist Ryuki ‘Kitchen’ Maeda, and drummer Ryota Unebasami. The band officially launched on August 14th, 2021, with the music video for their sugary hardcore punk track ‘Kill Me Baby’. They quickly gained traction, debuting with a show at Shimokitazawa SHELTER and the release of their EP ‘DON’t COMMIT SUICIDE’. Signed to the indie label Nyang Nyang Records, I’s became known for overwhelming live performances and a steady release schedule, including the single ‘Analog Memory’ (2022) and their final EP ‘Eternal Impulse’ (2023), solidifying their presence in Japan’s punk scene.
