Special Video Message from 10-FEET Members!
A Special Message from TAKUMA (Vocals/Guitar)
It's about running. When I watch track and field athletes on the world stage, I see some of them set a new personal best at the World Championships or the Olympics. Beating your best-ever record on the biggest stage—a record you've run countless times—shows your ability to channel all that pressure and excitement into your run. It's an incredible thing.
I used to play sports myself, but I was never able to get a better record in a real match than I did in practice. I think the key is how much you can sharpen your mind and spirit and pour that into your stride and final spurt, but I find that a very difficult thing to do.
The Uma Musume, on the other hand, seem to take it all in and run as if they're enjoying it. We took that image and shared it with the other members of 10-FEET to create this song. Please give it a listen!

Based in their hometown of Kyoto, 10-FEET is a simple three-piece band whose music cannot be confined to a single genre like melodic hardcore. Their unique style incorporates elements of ROCK, PUNK, HEAVY METAL, REGGAE, HIP HOP, and GUITAR POP.
The band is always making headlines with their energetic live performances at venues and festivals across Japan. They are known for their powerful stage presence, deeply humanistic lyrics, and fun-loving personalities that always bring a smile to the audience's face. They've fully embraced their role as entertainers in every aspect of their activities.
In December 2022, they released their 9th album, which featured the hit ending theme song "Dai Zero Kan" for the film “THE FIRST SLAM DUNK.” Following the album's release, they embarked on a massive 56-show tour from January to November 2023, performing in 55 cities in Japan and one in South Korea. "Dai Zero Kan" went on to become the band's first-ever song to exceed 200 million streams, gaining popularity not only in Japan but also overseas. At the end of 2023, they made an appearance on the 74th NHK Kohaku Uta Gassen.
In 2024, they performed sold-out solo concerts in April at Kyoto Miyako Messe and in May at Yokohama Arena. Their latest release is the 21st single, "helm'N bass," which dropped on July 3, 2024. The single includes the song "Re-houteishiki," the theme song for the TBS drama “Fermat's Cuisine,” and "gg sanzen," the theme song for "2024 ABC Professional Baseball." Even 28 years after their formation, the band continues to hit new peaks and push forward, constantly evolving.
10-FEET also hosts the annual outdoor music festival, "Kyoto Daisakusen," in their hometown of Kyoto. Although the inaugural event planned for 2007 was canceled due to a typhoon, it has since become a beloved summer tradition. Despite cancellations in some years due to weather issues or the COVID-19 pandemic, the festival has been loved by countless fans for over 15 years, with tickets selling out every year.
