Profile

Beat Crusaders was first formed in 1997 with four members originally. For the first couple of years, the band did mostly Indies music. In 2003, the band switched to another record label. The band wanted to really make an impression on the music industry and they did! They began to release music and get placed on the Oricon charts. Recently the band also recieved the opportunity to perform the opening song for the anime Beck!

My Thoughts

Beat Crusaders is a fairly good rock band that just hit the major music industry. They are very similar to Asian Kung-Fu Generation, Art School, and Straightener. The vocalist has a nice husky voice and the band tends to play upbeat, classic rock songs. The band is also a fan of English songs. The one major difference about this band is that they are very secretive about their identities as you can see from the pictures above. The following is their song that was used in the anime Beck!
