Mongol800 (モンゴル はっぴゃく mongoru happyaku?) is a Japanese punk rock band from Urasoe, Okinawa, Japan consisting of three members. When they were aged 19, they released their first album. They have released five studio recordings, one single, and one live concert DVD. In 2001, despite low commercial attention, they sold over two-million records[1] from the album Message. Several years afterwards, they released more albums with just as much success.
