With their superb debut album, the Boom Boom Satellites proved they were one of the most exciting and innovative Japanese acts of the time.
From there on, however, things became a little dull.
The subsequent EP, 7 Ignitions: Auto-Rebirth, was painfully average.
The band's next full-length album was this, 2001's UMBRA.
The LP features a decidedly similar sound to Out Loud, yet the songwriting is of a much lower standard.
Whereas the debut had such innovative tracks as "An Owl," amongst others, UMBRA hosts nothing of the kind, taking a far more straightforward path throughout.
It's this highly conventional dullness that makes UMBRA so disappointing, especially considering the vitality of its predecessor.
