Sads were a Japanese post-punk and glam-rock band formed in 1999. The band made its debut with the single "Tokyo". The band released nine singles and four albums before its disbandment in 2003.

Sads was formed by Kiyoharu, vocalist of the disbanded Kuroyume, in May 1999 and at the same time formed his own record label "Full Face". Their first live tour was held in the United Kingdom as opposed to Japan. Kiyoharu has said that the decision to tour internationally from the very beginning was to test Sads' ability to "compete worldwide".

Their first album, Sad Blood Rock'n'Roll, was a continuation of the bare-bones punk and garage rock from the last Kuroyume album, Corkscrew. Sads eventually delved more into glam-rock and post-punk territory as their releases progressed. Sads, as Kuroyume, were known for their high energy live performances. Some of the bands sets would last for over three and a half hours. Their drummer, during one of the tours, suffered from nerve paralysis from playing almost every single night on a consecutive tours that lasted over a year.

Their official fanclub is called "Rubbersole".
