<blockquote>
<p dir="auto">In December 1993, Ryutaro Arimura and Tadashi Hasegawa formed Plastic Tree.<br />
Through energetic live performances, they steadily gained fans and made their major debut in June 1997 with “Waketa Mado”.<br />
The band's unique worldview drew attention, with their work spanning from aggressive guitar rock to pop-oriented sounds. This worldview gained popularity overseas, leading them to undertake a world tour in July 2006. They proved their ability to perform globally.</p>
<p dir="auto">In September 2007, they achieved great success with their Nippon Budokan concert marking their 10th anniversary since major debut. Their second Nippon Budokan concert on August 30, 2009, also concluded to great acclaim. Gaining ever more momentum, Plastic Tree stands as a pioneering rock band within the neo-visual kei scene.</p>

<p dir="auto"><em>Nowadays the band is on a tour running from 2025 to 2027 to celebrate the 30th anniversary of their major debut. During this period, they revisit different eras of their career by performing and reflecting on their past releases. Through this journey, Plastic Tree looks back on the themes and messages present throughout their albums.</em></p>

I find myself returning to their インク live "demonstration" album, just a really strong showing from them overall IMO.</p>

<p dir="auto">These days I'm rarely in the mood for them explicitly, but they're always nice to listen to. By this point in time, I can enjoy any album of theirs, but of course some of the older ones have more sentimental value.</p>
<p dir="auto">Any favorite albums, anyone? Mine are probably Puppet Show, Parade and Dona dona.</p>
