024 . I Am The Protagonist
Another cool band you should check is Faderhead.

First of all, because you can listen their whole album online, and this is terribly smart. Secondly, because even if they are newcomers of the scene, FH1, their first album, has many things to say in the EBM area. Even if electronic layers and textures are quite simple (basic beats, basic sounds, no complexity at all, but electric guitars will be added in live shows) the result is surprisingly fresh and intelligent. Chorus have the right mood, songs are quite different one from another ("I am the protagonist" explode in the middle, "Melting Into Your Eyes" is a very good classic-style futurepop song, and "Mattaku (Feat. Myoonji Sadamune)" has an iponotic refrain that shows the way for future EBM). No surprise in knowing that the leader is coming from a heavy metal background: in many cases (let's point Ulver, or Manes) this means new approches to the use of eletronic instruments. Thumbs up!
