I wish I could look as swag as that
art of parties is such a fucking tune
i love david sylvian and also his music
Homo band

They mostly are shit, but their final album is good. Solo Sylvian mogs them into oblivion.
They don't get brought up as much their contemporaries in the new romantic sort of scene like Duran Duran because they don't really have that one single big mega pop hit that still gets played regularly on the radio years later, at least in America. They were kind of a minor band here and often compared to a 2nd rate Bowie or DD
theyre way better than duran duran. a lot more artistically innovative and conceptual with their work compared to duran duran's vapid pop
Ghosts is an all-time song but most of their other stuff is kinda whatever.
Gentlemen Take Polaroids > Tin Drum
Because you're the only one who cares about them you gay waifufag
I honestly think that david sylvian has the greatest voice of all time
The opposite of this.
One of my favorite bands. Sylvian's solo stuff is phenomenal too.
They developed such a strong sound over their few albums (after they dropped the lame "new romantics" schtick).
Karn's distinctive bass stands out so well. Never really appreciated bass until I listened to him.

Japan is a gem of a band, their last 3 albums, especially Tin Drum are kino
>Named themselves after a country not even some obscure literally who country like Malawi or Uzbekistan but Japan

moshi moshi
I think the name gave them a lot of attention/popularity in the country. Along with collaborations with Tsuchiya and Sakamoto.
Their Kyoto 1981 concert is goated, much better than the BBC Radio Broadcast concert
