Envy is one of the foremost hardcore/screamo bands of Japan. They have a large following outside of their native Japan, and are signed to Rock Action Records in Europe and Temporary Residence Limited in North America, though originally they worked with Level Plane Records. Vocalist Tetsuya Fukagawa was featured on the song "I Chose Horses" from the album Mr Beast by Scottish post-rock band Mogwai, the same band that owns and operates Rock Action Records.
