POLYSICS

POLYSICS is a Japanese new wave/synth pop/punk/rock band, hailing from Tokyo. The band started in 1997, but got their big break in 1998 at a concert in Tokyo. They create high energy music, fusing conventional guitar music, with synthesized and computer generated sound to create a unique mixture of punk and electro-pop. Their song lyrics often consist of Japanese, English, or just plain gibberish. The band has been noted for their extremely energetic live performances and their wild gimmicky outfits.

Red Jumpsuit Apparatus

The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, an alternative rock/post-hardcore band with touches of screamo, pop-punk, and metal, was originally formed in 2003 in Middleburg, Florida. For about 18 months the band members wrote and rehearsed with no real intentions of performing or recording anything, but they were later urged by some friends to pursue their music seriously. Eventually this encouragement led the band to book themselves some local shows, and were quickly embraced by their hometown local music scene.
