==Information==
 
In December 2009, amazarashi released a mini-album ''[[0 (amazarashi)|0]]'' as a limited release of 500 copies in [[Aomori]]. Since the album created a lot of buzz and they were flooded with inquiries, they eventually released the mini-album nationwide as ''[[0 (amazarashi)|0.6]]''.
 
 
 
As the intense worldview of their lyrics grabbed the attention of listeners with quick ears, they made a major debut with ''[[Bakudan no Tsukurikata (amazarashi album)|Bakudan no Tsukurikata]]'' released from [[Sony Music Entertainment|Sony Music]] in June 2010.
 
 
 
"A band led by Akita Hiromu from Aomori," was the only information officially shared about the band, but they have expanded their fan base by word of mouth, mostly through the internet, to such an extent that their latest mini-album ''[[Nee Mama Anata no Iutoori]]'' went up to the #8 in the [[Oricon]] weekly album chart.
 
 
 
When performing live, they have a unique style where they play behind a screen that covers the whole stage and projects various images to go along with the music. Their shows have been much talked about, and some say it gives the audience a sense of watching a film and enjoying live music at the same time.
 
 
 
They are also known as their [[PV|music videos]] with CG animation and have won a variety of awards worldwide.
 
 
 
In 2010, their music video for "[[Natsu wo Matte Imashita]]" won the Excellence Award at the [[Wikipedia:Japan_Media_Arts_Festival|14th Japan Media Arts Festival]]. amazarashi's "[[Natsu wo Matte Imashita]]" and [[sakanaction]]'s "[[Aruku Around]]" were the only music videos that won the awards that year.
 
 
 
Furthermore, they have attracted interest throughout the world as they won prizes at [[Wikipedia:Annecy International Animated Film Festival|Annecy International Animated Film Festival]] (originally a part of Cannes Film Festival) in France, SIGGRAPH ASIA 2011 (the world’s biggest computer graphics event), [[Wikipedia:onedotzero|onedotzero]] 2011 (a digital animation festival in London), and more.
