To Harapeko (hungry to death) people! Happy New Year!!

Last year started with Daisuke-han's full return to life from vocal cord surgery!

In Spring, we visited many places in Japan as "Tsume Tsume Tsume post final" tour
which is totally unparalleled in history and all tickets sold out on the day of release!!

In Summer, Ryo-kun caught a super-flu which no one expected but one thing is for
sure that he really got caught up! In Fall, Nao announced her pregnancy with joy!!

So last year, MTH didn't release any album, but had a lot of events
.Even though these events caused a lot of problems to fans and people involved,
we got tons of messages saying "Bring it on! But not until you are ready!!".
So all the members and staff are very much encouraged to rise up again!!
Thank you very much!

As most of you already know, MTH is in it's hiatus because of Nao's pregnancy
but the band is working on to bear new children for our next title!
Thank you for your pastry. Correction.

patience.Our very best wishes for a Menkata Kotteri
(al dente ramen noodles in greasy soup)
2010...

All members from MTH and staff at Mimikajiru

The event, SAKOKU -Enon- vol. 1 presented by MAXIMUM THE HORMONE ended today!
MTH invited two great international bands so the tour became something very
much condensed and exciting with these 3 bands. They toured 3 big cities in
Japan which are Tokyo, Nagoya and Osaka.

These bands, BRING ME THE HORIZON and BLESSED BY A BROKEN HEART showed
fantastic performances so these bands released us from SAKOKU -historical
isolation policy and period of Japan which ended long ago- state!!

Keep your eye on the next SAKOKU -Enon- event!

"Tsume Tsume Tsume Travel Additional Final" Tour is over!!

After 3 months of break,
This tour started and spent more than 5 months to end for this "Additional Final" Tour.
And the last show was on April 30th at Hachiouji MATCH VOX.

Our first operation of name and ID check worked well because of your corporation.
And so they could finish this tour without any troubles.
MAXIMUM THE HORMONE will be pushing forward.
So we want to ask you for your continuous support!!

Last year, MTH toured U.S. and Canada in March and that was the first tour outside Japan for us.
In July, "Tsume Tsume Tsume / 「F」" was released in Japan.
And the all the tickets for all the shows of the "Tsume Tsume Tsume"tour in Japan
were sold out in one day.

During the tour of 4 months term, MTH performed at Summer music festivals
throughout the nation (MTH became the most performed band at different
Summer music festivals in Japan), and also performed at the music festival in
Korea in August. After this tour in Japan, we got out of Japan and toured Europe.

And unexpectedly ,suddenly and unfortunately, we got to know Daisuke needs
some medical operation on his vocal chord.

When we look back this year, it is hard to believe that all these happened in a year.
It was a year which was rich, heavy and greasy. And talking of greasiness, 3 members
out of all 4 (and you know who they are) "qualified" as people with fatty livers as
the result of complete medical checkup! That means we are juicier than ever!

We are all here now because of YOU! (except about the fatty livers)
Thank you very much! All the members of MTH and all the staff will do our best.
We might be getting more greasy, but never get greedy.

In order to have more power to make more "Zawa Zawa (sound people buzzing)",
we will put it all on the line and in 2009, we will absolutely get unmeasurable!!
So we need your continuous support and opinions in the years to come.

We wish you an even better year just like a bowl of "Men-Kata Kotteri (al dente
noodle with rich and greasy soup)" ramen...

New Single CD
TSUME TSUME TSUME / "F"
released on 9.July.2008.		 At this moment of their life, what they created was sadistic with all A-side single!
The former album "Bu-ikikaesu" sold more than 250,000 copies and keep selling even now. After the album, they released their DVD, "Deco vs. Deco" in March. It topped the domestic DVD sales weekly chart and sold almost 100,000 copies so far. No one can stop the momentum of this band, MAXIMUM THE HORMONE!!
After a year and 4 months from the release of the last album, "Bu-ikikaesu", they release this aggressive, offensive, but catchy and smart masterpieces in one single CD.
This single was number 2 for their first appearance in the national chart.
