What's in a Name?
The band's name, "Sekai no Owari," has a special meaning. Satoshi Fukase, the lead singer, chose the name after going through a very difficult time. He felt like his world was ending. But during this time, he realized that he still had his music and his friends. He decided to name the band "SEKAI NO OWARI" to show that even from a tough "end," new beginnings can happen.
Their Journey: How They Started
The members of Sekai no Owari have been friends since they were very young, from preschool all the way through high school. Saori is just one year younger than the others. The current DJ Love is actually the second person to hold that role in the band. The first DJ Love left because he wanted to explore different types of music.
The band officially started in 2006. They even built their own music venue, called "club EARTH," where they could practice and perform. In 2010, their song "The life of illusion" became their first big hit. Since then, Sekai no Owari has grown very popular and now performs their music for fans all over the world.
