Funta |
|---|
Funta is a Japanese pop rock band consisting of two members: UCO (U子 pronounced /yu.ko/) on vocals and Yoshimi (吉見) on guitar and bass. Active since 1997, Funta has not released any full-length albums to date, focusing instead on releasing singles for use as theme songs in anime.
Funta's decidedly upbeat sound, described by them as being technopop, incorporates elements from a range of styles including dance, ska, pop punk, digital hardcore, and industrial rock (sometimes all in one song), although it is perhaps UCO's intentionally "kawaii", occasionally munchkin-esque singing style that is the band's most distinguishing characteristic.
Aside from being the sole performers of their material, Funta also has several compositional and lyrical credits for anime themes performed by other artists, including Mika Kikuchi, Suitei-Shojo, and Mai Nakahara.
