"Japanese pop star revealed to be computer generated, fans in shock" reads this article in which the newest member of the band was revealed to be a composite of all the other members. To be honest, as the article says, I couldn't tell which one was CGI even when I knew one was.
Is this what all bands will become following the Archies and Gorillaz with the technology or maybe it's a high brow look at the manufactured nature of lots of bands. Though, actually, it is Japan so it's probably just them combining technology with weirdness.
There are some boy band members we've known for ages that could do with being more animated though...
