Became popular with their breakthrough music "CHAIN" was the opening theme of the Anime "AIR GEAR"on to feature as the opening theme to the 6-part Murder Princess OVA, as well as both the opening and closing themes of the Anime Eyeshield 21.
According to a recent source. anipike the bands inspiration comes from The Police, Smashing Pumpkins, Linkin Park, and the Fugees. Each band member also has their individual favorite artists.
Their upcoming Latest Album release schedule is unconfirmed, but there is a rumour that their first ever full album will be released at the end of July 2008 (supposedly July 30th 2008) which will consist of 13 tracks, including flower and Sands of time.
flower(Eyeshied21), the single, was their last release of 2007, where Back-on released 2 singles on the same day, which came as a great surprise for many. The title songs from both singles - flower and Butterfly were new theme songs for Eyeshield 21 and the 6-part J-drama Shinjuku Swan respectively. The theme song for the latter is actually quite electronic in style, a new frontier for the band, and judging by the reaction to the preview so far, it is striking the right balance.
Back-on originates from Adachi and the band aims to showcase the street flavour of Adachi, Tokyo. Each song is meant to deliver a message with an ‘explosive‘ impact … hence their band name. Back-on’s name comes from the sound of an explosion “爆音“, which has the romaji pronunciation “baku-on
