ORESKABAND talks with Eric Blair (Vans Warped Toue 08)

ORESKABAND (オレスカバンド, Oresukabando?) is an all-female ska band from Sakai, Japan. They have released two full albums in Japan, Ore in July 2006, and WAO!! in May 2007, as well as a self-titled compilation album for a US release, ORESKABAND. They have performed in Japan, Canada and the United States, including the Fuji Rock Festival. Their songs have been featured as the 14th ending theme for the anime Naruto and the 11th ending theme for the anime Bleach.

The band name, "ore ska band," literally translates as "we're (a) ska band." While "ore" is normally an extremely masculine and casual way to say "I" in Japanese and the suffix "-tachi" is added to personal nouns when emphasizing that they are plural, it's clear in this context that "ore" means something more along the lines of "we fellows." The choice of "ore" is also one of gender play, as the band usually appear wearing boy's school uniform in their videos and concerts.
