Information
HIGH and MIGHTY COLOR originated as a five piece band named ANTI-NOBUNAGA on the island of Okinawa. They often performed in US Army clubs on the island and would cover Western songs. In 2003, the band met Maki by chance, who they met at a music festival, they decided to change their name and began the trek to a professional career.
They were first announced as a major label band at a music event called Music Picnic, which was held in September of 2004, and soon after in January of 2005 debuted with the single PRIDE; which was used as the opening theme for the anime Mobile Suit Gundam SEED DESTINY, which reached #2 in Oricon charts. Since then, all of their singles have been in the top 25 on the charts. Another single, Ichirin no Hana, was also used for the opening of the anime Bleach.
Though now a major label band, they are still based in Okinawa. Only 15 months after their debut, they performed in the United States as a special guest for ShiokazeCon, a anime convention in Texas that took place April 28-30th, 2006.

Their new single, Dreams, is the new ending for the anime Darker than Black -Kuro no Keiyakusha-. It replaced Rie fu's Tsukiakari.
