Hanatarashi (ハナタラシ), meaning "sniveler" or "snot-nosed" in Japanese, was a noise band created by Yamantaka Eye in Osaka, Japan in 1983. The other core member during the early years was Ikuo Taketani. After the release of the first album, the "I" was dropped and the name became "Hanatarash". Both men later formed Boredoms, and Taketani played drums for Zeni Geva.

They used a variety of unusual noise-making objects, including power tools, drills, and heavy machinery.
