nihongo|NICO Touches the Walls|ニコタッチズザウォールズ "Niko Tatchizu Za Uōruzu" is a Japanese J-Rock band formed in 2004. In the same year, they won the LOTTE Prize at the Yamaha Teen Music Festival. Rising quickly, they signed to Senya & Co. before signing to Ki/oon Records in 2007; the same label that signed the popular bands Asian Kung-Fu Generation, L'Arc-en-Ciel and many more. Their major debut single, Yoru no Hate (夜の果て), was released in February 2008. Recently, their song "Broken Youth" was featured as the 6th ending theme song for the popular anime Naruto Shippuuden. According to Mistumura, the band’s unique name relates “walls” with obstacles in life and the band’s ambition to overcome them, continuing to their own world.
