BEAT CRUSADERS, commonly abbreviated BECR, was instigated at the end of 1997 by Tōru Hidaka as an experimental U.S. Lo-Fi Indie Pop unit. The rest of the band later joined as a result of continual experimental gigs performed around the Shimokitazawa (Tokyo) area. Their creative use of analogue, synthesizers and the old Casitone, incorporated with influences of such bands as Weezer and The Rentals, and at times the dynamism of Snuffesque rock , had transformed them into a powerfully melodic guitar band. By the end of 1998, BEAT CRUSADERS had already started creating songs that they were a crazy and fun live act not to be missed. The momentum carried on with a single «E.C.D.T.» released in June of the following year which entered independent charts of CD retail shops all across Japan. A month later their first mini-album, «HOWLING SYMPHONY OF…» was released; this entered the charts again with various music magazines giving the big thumbs up. Reflecting their chart action and praise from magazines, numerous live offers followed from notable bands in the Japanese alternative/independent scene, from guitar pop and new wave of new wave, to pop punk and ska bands. They continued to be busy, with their second single «FIRESTARTER» released in early 2000 and later the full-length «ALL YOU CAN EAT». They also were involved in four compilations, their own ‘cover’ EPs including a split entitled «WXY» with fellow Japanese punk band Captain Hedgehog.
