How does the music composed of the essential factors from Loud Rock, Hard Core and Heavy Metal sounds? What does it sound like if growl, horribly fast rap and pop tune come together?
The answer is the sound MAXIMUM THE HORMONE bangs out! The lyrics written by MAXIMUM THE RYOKUN -guitarist and singer- are Japanese that most of the Japanese hardly understand. Songs are full of word games, humor and sarcasms. It sounds funny superficially, but venomous inside!

In Japan, it is rare that this kind of music appear to the major national music chart. But they did.
Their latest Album ranked number 4 on the national sales chart. MTH released 4 albums in their history and every item sold more than 100,000 copies and latest Album sold more than 250,000copies. They are all long selling albums.
On July.2008, they released aggressive, offensive, but catchy and smart masterpieces in one single CD”TSUME TUSME TSUME/”F””. This single was number 2 for their first appearance in the national chart and sold almost 150,000 copies.
In 2006, MTH performed at big international rock festivals in Japan such as SUMMER SONIC where also LINKIN PARK and METALLICA performed.
MTH performed at PUNK SPRING07 and SUMMER SONIC07. Billing for PUNK SPRING07 included NOFX, NEW FOUND GLORY, and JIMMY EAT WORLD, and for SUMMER SONIC07, Black Eyed Peas, THE OFFSPRING, Gwen Stefani, SUM41, Avenged Sevenfold, Fall out boy, Enter Shikari and more. MTH performed at 10,000 cap stage and audience entry went under restriction due to over capacity.

Live shows they performed throughout a year counted well over 100.
The tickets for all the venues had sold out. Although MTH can sell out bigger venues, MTH firmly finds 3000 standing capacities the best to reach and connect with the audience. Today, because there are 21,000~24,000 fans striving to buy tickets each show, the lottery is taking place for them to buy tickets each time and this is the only way to keep it fair for everyone to come join the show.

In 2008,MTH has been touring with Enter Shikari in January. MTH will be bonding with many more international artists ever strongly.
