In May, they released their first full-length album, WAO!!. They performed at Anime Expo in July 2007 and participated in the 2008 Vans Warped Tour. The band released their second full-length album, Color in 2010, and the single "Jitensha" (自転車, Bicycle) was featured as the 13thending song of Naruto: Shippuden . Since then, ORESKABAND has continuing to perform in the US, Brazil, Argentina and Europe. In 2020, the bassist Tomi announced her departure from ORESKABAND to pursue other musical endeavors.
