Boom Boom Satellites

Electro rockers Boom Boom Satellites put their touring on hold at the end of 2012, when guitarist and singer Michiyuki Kawashima was diagnosed with a brain tumour – just days before the release of new album Embrace. Thankfully, it seems that his treatment was a success: the band announced via Nico Nico Douga on February 26 that they would be hitting the road again this spring, albeit just for one show. And not just any show: it's their first-ever gig at the hallowed Nippon Budokan. Tickets go on general sale on March 31.
