The Hum Hums - Rejected Demos 2013​-​2021

The Hum Hums - Rejected Demos 2013​-​2021

We started the band in June 2010. All of us lived in the neighborhood of East Saitama located 25 miles away from Tokyo. For the first couple of years we made two demos and recorded one song for a compilation called Pop Punk Mania Japan, which was released in 2011.
The debut album "Teenage Loser" was released in October 2013 by Waterslide Records. Waterslide and us made it with great respect for an American indipendent record label Mutant Pop Records. It spread the band's name worldwide.
In May 2014, we went on tour with Steve Adamyk Band from Canada and supported 3 shows during their Japan tour. Also started preparing songs for the next album.
In September 2015, we went to America for 8 day tour with The Maxies, The Girls! (5 days in California) and The Putz (3 days in the Midwest). 2nd album "Back To Front" was released while we were touring in the US. It was by Waterslide Records in collaboration with a long established Spanish label Rumble Records.
In February 2016, one of legendary Swedish punk bands Psychotic Youth came for their first Japan tour and we supported 3 shows. The split CD with our favorite English punk band Skimmer was released in August 2016. 1st single "Battle Line EP" released in August 2018. Indonesia tour supported by Saturday Night Karaoke was happened soon after the release. In July 2019, supported Saturday Night Karaoke (Indonesia) Japan tour and at the same timing Yuta Negi joined the band as the guitarist and bassist. He's a multi-player but mainly plays guitar.
