History

Origin of the band name

The band name "I Don't Like Mondays." was chosen because the members liked the idea of using a sentence to describe the band. [5] The band has stated that they truly dislike Mondays, and they consider it to be a weekly holiday. [3]

2012–2015: Formation and early albums

The band was formed in 2012 in Omotesando, Tokyo. [6] Yu was intending to be the manager of a new band when he met Kenji and Shuki, who had worked together in a previous band. Choji joined after the band's initial guitarist dropped out. [7]

Their first album Play was released in September 2014 by Nippon Coumbia, [8] with the band playing a number of festivals the same year, including Tokyo Crazy Kawaii Taipei [9] and J-Music LAB 2014 in Hai Day.

[2] Yu stated an affinity for the series, claiming it was the only manga he has kept reading childhood, and used the teamwork aspect of his own band as inspiration. [27] To prepare for the song's creation, Yu corresponded with One Piece creator Eiichiro Oda to express his thoughts about the series' theme of overcoming adversity. [28]
