Band history[edit]
The name of the Space band, according to the fictional description given in the anime series Cowboy Bebop, derives from how the performers wear seatbelts to be safe while they play hardcore jam sessions.
I know there are a million copies of this song on youtube but this is the full version taken from the official soundtrack and I wanted to share it. #AnimeMix 95,000+ views? There's a lot of Bebop. Cowboy Bebop Tank The Best Rarest. I think it's time they make a live-action series. Get everybody and the stuff together. Okay, three, two, one.
The band performed the whole soundtrack of the anime series Cowboy Bebop and produced a total of seven albums and one live DVD.
