Championed by the sharper elements of the burgeoning New Romantic movement during the late '70s, Japan emerged from glam post-punk beginnings with a cultured, refined, moodily atmospheric sound that set them apart from the poppier batch of cool fops and pretty boys that included Duran Duran and Spandau Ballet. Led by David Sylvian, the band found its unique groove with standout tracks, including "Ghosts", "Life In Tokyo", and the inventive Motown cover "I Second That Emotion".
