ARKTA is an international hybrid rock duo consisting of Tak (vocals), hailing from Los Angeles, California, and kenken (vocals/producer), originally from Tokyo. Tak is also recognized as the ring announcer for New Japan Pro-Wrestling and serves as the screamer for the North American band Quietude. kenken, on the other hand, was previously a member of the metalcore band DELHEZI and played support guitar for the loud band Another Story.Combining nu-metal and emo seamlessly, the band weaves emotional melody lines and Tak's intense screams to narrate the "ups and downs of life."

Immediately after their formation in May 2020, ARKTA provided two songs, "Keep me alive" and "Damaging you," as the ending theme songs for the computer game "Slow Damage" by the game brand Nitro+chiral.
