"Basically women are body conscious and men play with their joysticks. The woman is in the more powerful position. The idea is about woman and man, sexual and urban."

Genta Matsumura from new wave/dance-punk quartet Umibachi trying to explain the at first glance baffling title of his band's new album "Body Conscious & Joystick," their first new release since 2004's "No School."

"We're all shy boys," agrees drummer Eiji Morotomi, "and then there's the idea of analogue and digital. 'Body-conscious' is more analogue, and 'joystick' is digital."
