>Masayuki Nakano, bassist for the band Boom Boom Satellites, announced on the band's official website on Tuesday that the band's "Lay Your Hands On Me" EP release will be their last work, as vocalist/guitarist Michiyuki Kawashima (top in image right) is suffering from partial paralysis as an after-effect of his fourth brain tumor relapse.
>The group has created music for anime projects such as Appleseed and Vexille - 2077 Isolation of Japan. They also performed theme songs for Xam'd: Lost Memories, Mobile Suit Gundam UC, Ninja Slayer From Animation, and contributed to Guilty Crown. Their latest and last song "Lay Your Hands On Me" debuted as the opening theme song of Studio Trigger's currently airing Kiznaiver television anime.
What a shame

Fuck. I don't even know who they are, but that's rough.
>>142261985
> Nakano commented on the announcement:
>We've finished the "Lay Your Hands On Me" EP, and it's set for release on June 22. The EP has four tracks, amounting to about 22 minutes in total. Festivities and endings, silence, and then a new beginning: it's as if we put the band's entire history perfectly in those 22 minutes. Everyone who's heard it have all done us the honor of calling it an "album." In truth, Kawashima had really wanted to do an album. I feel like I want to tell him, "We've finally done that 10th album." Nothing could be more appropriate to close out our band's history.
>This will be the last work for Boom Boom Satellites, due to Michiyuki Kawashima's paralysis due to the after-effects of the brain tumor. Kawashima's finished his duties as a musician, and is spending every day with his family. He can still speak, although slowly. His arm and leg movement is impaired, and he spends more and more time on a wheelchair. It's hard for him to communicate exactly what he means, so I spend a lot of time every day thinking about what he could be thinking. It would be impossible even for me to understand fully. But I think he feels a great sense of fulfillment and accomplishment in finishing this. Even I can see it. I want to tell him that he did a great job.
>There's only a little while before the 20th anniversary of our major debut, and before the end of my journey with Michiyuki Kawashima. I've witnessed plenty while I was together with him. Looking back on it, nothing was easy. We've had to punch, kick, struggle, and sprint our way here. But when I look back, we can be proud of all of it, and even now those wonderful memories shine.
>Only a little more until the finish line. I'm looking forward to everyone being able to listen to this track on June 21.

>>142262378
For fuck's sake. One of the best japanese bands. Fuck this shit, that's too sad.
They did some genuienly fun songs but god damn the Kiznaiver OP is literally Take On Me. Not just using the overused pop punk chord progression but not even using it in a personal way.
>>142261985
>fourth brain tumor relapse
>FOURTH FUCKING RELAPSE
Fuck that shit. No one deserves getting cancer five times.
>>142262378
I'm sad now.
Damn
At least their last work went towards a contender for AOTS
>>142261985
WHY
Oh man for real? I've been a fan ever since I heard Shut Up and Explode during Xam'd's op. What a shame.
>>142261985
say it ain't so

Holy shit.

Having a brain tumor is almost like a death sentence and to think that he could escape it five times.
Still, great work there.
>>142263119
Stroll and Roll right? Yeah I've listened to some of it and it's jammin. They're in they're fucking 50's though I don't see them doing it for much longer.
>Still no translations for any of the songs.
>>142262378
>tfw Lay Your Hands on Me is really about the fear and numbness of paralysis
>>142262908
>not caring about BOOM BOOM fucking SATELLITES
get out of my sw/a/mp
The OP for Kiznaiver is probably one of my favorite ever. Sucks that it's their last track, but at least they went out with a good one.
>>142261985
Fuck.

Fucking newshit.
Haven't you watched Durarara or Xam'd at least?
>>142263888
I'll miss them so bad
>>142261985
And here I was happy that they began doing OP's for anime more often. Fucking hell, it hurts.
I loved their OPs they were different from the usual generic claris shit.
>>142261985
speaking of ninja slayer, the TV version (that just staples two episodes together) has new EDs but nobody wants to upload em
>>142261985
Working for Trigger confirmed for giving tumors.

God damn, that sucks.
Also, to still be alive after four tumors and release a single on top of that, he's a real fighter.

Oh shit
What the fuck
Why does /a/ only empathize with Japanese people working in the anime industry? You wouldn't give a shit about this guy if he weren't involved in making anime songs.
Fake empathy is fucking disgusting.

What a hero. These guys were the real deal live too, I really don't want to let go.
;_;
>>142266001
Why do you only empathize with your family members? You wouldn't give a shit if some random hobo across the street died.
Same fucking logic. If they're somehow involved with you obviously you would mourn their deaths.
>>142261985
>>142262378
Bands that stop because a member cant go on make me really sad.
They were really good.
Still my fav of them.

>>142263025
Tomino still chain smokes. How he hasn't died yet is proof he kills his characters as substitutes for his own mortality.
>>142261985
>>142262316
Not really a fan of them but it's still sad to see them go. Their Kiznaiver OP was pretty good.
>>142262908
And your existence is >>>/trash/ fuck off.

>>142261985
Poor thing. Human beings sure are fragile creatures.
>>142262378
sucks and all, but every time I see how boring Japanese people talk, I get distracted
Lay Your Hands On Me suddenly carries a lot more weight. Damn.

Yes, like last year.

Wow where have I been all this time? Thanks.

They had a really good run. Hopefully Kawashima can now rest.

>>142277148
It was really boring most of the time.
It's sad that their last songs are for such mediocre to bad shows like Ninja Slayer and Kiznaiver. Back in Black and Lay your hands on me are catchy.
I realize
What I am fighting for
Until the end
I'll live inside of you
So I can see
Standing in front of a broken mirror
Who's gonna take you home
It's gonna feel real good
All of my life I've felt like dying
It's gonna feel real good

>Ninja Slayer

Congrats to them for all that they did. This is really the worst possible news but I'm glad they were able to make it this far. Listening to Shut up and Explode and Lay your hands on me is already getting hard.

Okay I admit, Whenever Naraku Within came on I enjoyed it.

Happy End and Yellow Magic Orchestra is some good fucking shit.

I guess you could say Boom Boom Satellites went... boom boom
/a/ sings 'Lay Your Hands On Me' when? It'd be a perfect sendoff to Boom Boom Satellites.
Michiyuki should personally hear the fans of BBS sing it as he fade into the otherworld.
