Formerly called So Band, they came to be known as Mayday in 1997, with the name originating from Masa's online nickname.[1] Mayday won the Golden Melody Award for Best Musical Group, an award given by the Taiwanese Ministry of Culture, in 2001, 2004, 2009 and 2012.[2]

Career

1995-1997: Formation

Mayday evolved from So Band which was formed by Ashin, Monster and the first drummer Chien You-ta (錢佑達) in 1995 while they were studying in The Affiliated Senior High School of National Taiwan Normal University (師大附中). They were later joined by Masa and Stone, who were attending the same school. After graduation, the members went to different universities but continued to perform in pubs and eateries. They were also actively involved in promoting the growing rock music trend in Taiwan.[3] In 1997, the band registered to perform at the Formoz Festival under the moniker Mayday.[1] Mayday was greatly influenced by The Beatles, believing that rock had the power to change the world, and spread ideals of love and peace through their songs

1997-1999: Mayday’s First Album

Shortly after participating in the Formoz Festival (野臺開唱) on 29 March 1997, the band began to actively send demo tapes to various record companies in the hope of sealing a record deal. Their demo impressed Rock Records executive Jonathan Lee (李宗盛)[4] who described them as "the ones who would usher in the sound of the future".[4]

As a result, they signed their first record deal with Rock Records in 1998. In the same year, they also took part in the release of the Taiwan Independent Compilation Album (ㄞ國歌曲) by indie music label TCM (角頭音樂) which included their first studio recording Motor Rock (軋車). In June 1998, they also released Embrace (擁抱) compilation album for which they took on most of the songwriting, production and recording duties.[5]

In 1999, after their third drummer Robert from Loh Tsui Kweh Commune had left (the second drummer was Chen Yung-chang 陳泳錩,[6] the ex-member from a band called "whynot" (disbanded)), Guan-you (冠佑) joined the band and completed Mayday. They went on to release their first full-length studio album Mayday's First Album (第一張創作專輯) under Rock Records on 7 July 1999. Their debut received critical acclaim, and they gained a following in Taiwan. It went on to sell more than 300,000 copies, a considerable feat for a new band in the then pessimistic and saturated music industry.[4] The songs Peter and Mary as well as Embrace became very popular among young audiences. Not long after, on 28 August 1999, Mayday held their first large-scale concert 168th Concert at the Taipei Municipal Stadium. They were also nominated for the 11th Golden Melody Awards under the category of Best Band (十一届金曲獎最佳演唱團體獎).[7]

The band's second album Viva Love (愛情萬歲) was released 7 July 2000.

As members Ashin, Monster and Masa would be enlisting in the army soon after, Stone would be going to England to learn studio techniques, and Guan-You would be heading to Los Angeles to hone his drumming skills, this was a farewell tour for the band. During their concert in Kaoshiung City, guitarist Stone successfully proposed to his girlfriend on stage.

2003-2005: Return to the music scene, Time Machine and God’s Children are all Dancing

During their hiatus, Mayday released the autobiographical documentary titled The Wings of Dream (搖滾本事) as well as an accompanying movie soundtrack, with ticket sales hitting more than NT1.2 million in barely three days.[11] On 16 August 2003, Mayday held their Castle in the Sky concert at the Taipei Municipal Stadium, attracting over 40,000 fans. This officially marked their return to the music scene.

On 11 November 2003, the band released their 4th studio album Time Machine (時光機). Sales of the album hit more than 150,000 within two days.[12] The album won them their 2nd Golden Melody Award for Best Band.

Musical style and influences

Mayday's songs are written mostly in Mandarin with some Taiwanese Hokkien tracks by Ashin, who speaks fluent Hokkien in addition to Mandarin. They are popular for their student band roots, and their ability to capture the zeitgeist of Taiwanese youth in the mid to late 1990s.[21]

Mayday's early style of music was marked by a raw style of music production that tended towards Hokkien garage rock tunes. They were also themes of teenage angst and growing up, with several songs making oblique references to the issues.[22]

Earlier lyrics written by Ashin often included themes such as teenage angst and growing up. However, in recent albums, Ashin has alluded to several cultural icons, notably the Chinese mythical monkey-god Sun Wu-Kong, Mickey Mouse, Superman, Neil Armstrong and Che Guevara. Ashin has also cited movies and novels as inspiration for his songs including "Viva Love" (愛情萬歲) which was inspired by avant-garde Taiwanese director Tsai Ming Liang's 1994 movie, Vive L'Amour[23] and the song "Armor" (武裝), which was influenced by a Chinese drama (孽子) and Haruki Murakami's novel Kafka on the Shore.[24]

Mayday has expressed their admiration of the Beatles, whom they cite as influencing their ideals of rock music.[25] The eighth track of their fifth album has a track called John Lennon (約翰藍儂) where the band espouses its dreams to become the "Beatles of the Chinese World" (華人世界的披頭四). Other musical influences include the Irish band U2, the British band Oasis, and the Japanese pop music artists Mr. Children.[26]
