The Rodeo Carburettor was a three-piece Japanese rock band that formed in 2001. The band hardly speaks on-stage (other than announcing the song name). Their use of distortion and noise have often led to comparisons to Guitar Wolf.[citation needed]
In 2005 the band performed at UK's International Music Convention, In The City, in Manchester, along with fellow Japanese artists PE'Z and DMBQ.[5] This was followed with another show at London's The Marquee Club that featured Mika Bomb. In 2006, the band toured the United States as part of the Japan Nite event.[6]
Their song "Speed of Flow" was used as an ending for the anime series Gintama.[7] It reached No. 43 on the Oricon Singles Chart.[8]
The band announced its dissolution in 2010. [9] Vocalist Takeshi Kaji later formed The Valves with guitarist Jean and percussionist Suzuki Akira.
