To the bafflement of my son and daughter, I am finding this particular recording of a stage performance of Machine Civilisation (the first song on this clip) pretty mesmerising and worthy of repeat viewings:
In fact, I have trouble explaining my reaction to it as well - I just know that it is weirdly cool.
The lyrics to the song are far from cheery, but they include certain themes which recur in the groups other songs (which are written by the leader-turned-politician Genki Sudo). And in keeping with a theme running through recent posts here, they seem clearly Buddhist influenced.
