Isn't the lead singer like some alien who's never visited Earth?

CatGirl 18th May 2008 04:59 AM

:O They're coming out with a new single and album?! Ohmigosh, I'm so excited! :D I was just listening to Heavenly Star today and thinking about how awesome they are :P

I'm officially interested now.

Who are they, any music you can offer?

Hazuki 18th May 2008 05:05 AM

HUH?! That's their only works? Isn't that weird..
I thought they were way older than that!
I remember them from Lumines and No More Heroes (Freaking love that game xD)
Genki Rockets are really good :heart

Um yeah.. Lumi(the girl in the photo)is an 18 year old girl born in space
and never visited Earth.
They're sort of like the Gorillaz, in a way.
They only use holograms in their performances~!
The two known producers are Mizuguchi Tetsuya and Tamai Kenji.

Kaori & GRACE "Genki Rockets (元気ロケッツ, Genki Rockets) is a hybrid band made up of unnamed musical artists. The face of the group is a fictional character named Lumi, an 18-year old girl who was born in space on September 11 2037 and has never been to Earth. Genki Rockets is unique in that it is a band composed entirely of unnamed musicians and that their music videos are entirely computer-generated, including the band's lead character, Lumi. The visuals are created by Japan's Glamoove, Inc. They are also unique in solely using holograms for live performances, such as their performance at Live Earth.

However, Genki Rockets is similar to the virtual band Gorillaz, in the fact that while none of the virtual band members represent actual people, the real musicians in the band have become well known."

I love the rock feel Star Line has!

GRACE 26th May 2008 07:54 PM

It's not all that exciting from the pictures I'm seeing, just holograms.
