Maybe it's just me, but it seems that no one is better at crossing genres than the Japanese people. Case in point, Boom Boom Satellites. Are they an electro dance band? Electro-punk? Rock with computerized beats? Jazz/electro fusion? I guess they're a little of everything. Mostly drums. Lots and lots of drums, cut up and looped until the fabric of time and space calls it a day and goes home defeated. BBS are first and foremost a dance band, but a very dark one, with vocals shouted and run through the same time-warp as the drums, wailing synths and guitars. Their music has been featured in several video games and movies, most notably "Dive For You" in the 2004 Appleseed movie.
