ALL OFF is a Japanese alternative rock quintet formed in 2004 that rose to prominence within the 'loud rock' scene of the 2010s. Their sonic identity is characterized by a fusion of melodic punk, post-hardcore, and alternative rock, often featuring bilingual lyrics that helped them gain international traction.
The band's career arc saw them transition from indie stalwarts to major-label contenders, notably contributing high-profile theme songs to anime series like 'Mob Psycho 100' and 'Heavy Object'. This cultural positioning placed them alongside peers like MAN WITH A MISSION and NoisyCell, though ALL OFF maintains a more straightforward, guitar-driven rock foundation. Critical consensus highlights their consistency and the sheer power of their live-oriented arrangements. Influenced by both the Japanese indie scene and Western acts like Zebrahead or Sum 41, they represent a specific era of J-rock where technical precision met raw, emotive songwriting. Their work is a staple for collectors of anime soundtracks and enthusiasts of high-energy, melodic rock.
