It has been duly noted here and on the rest of the internet that the Japanese tend to do things...differently. Some are frightened by this cultural chasm, but I say Hell and Yes.
Polysics are a self described "technicolor pogo punk" band and its no surprise that vocalist and guitarist Hiroyuki Hayashi is obsessed with Devo. The band manages to channel that 80's new wave feel but infuse it with a crazy electric energy that is all their own.
Enough words, its really better to see for yourself.
*Random fact: The little girl in the first video is Strong Machine 2 (she was 11 in the video). She lives at a Buddhist temple with her father, who is not only the priest of the temple but also Strong Machine 1. Together they are STRONG MACHINE, ichiban robot dancing team!
