Mongol800 is a Japanese three-piece punk rock band from Urasoe, Okinawa, Japan, formed in 1998. The band released their first album when the members were 19. In 2001, despite low media attention, they produced a commercially-prominent second album Message, which eventually sold over two million record copies. Due to the success of the album the musicians were offered label deals from several major labels and an invitation to participate at the Kōhaku Uta Gassen which the band declined to stay independent. – Wikipedia
