Description

[Machine Translation] The long-awaited second album from the Tokyo metal scene's heavyweight band, which led the underground Japanese metal scene in the 1990s, after a 10-year absence! The band was formed in 1990. After numerous live performances, tours, and two demo tapes, in 1994, all members except for Shoji Yasuno (G) left the band. Yoshio Enari (B), Tatsuya Takeyari (Ds), and Jeff Rowe (Vo) joined the band and released a demo tape "TRY YOUR FAITH" in 1995. In 1995, they released a demo tape "TRY YOUR FAITH", which led to a deal with LARD RECORDS. In 1996, their first album "ANOTHER DIMENTION" was released and they performed nationwide. 1997 saw the release of the compilation CD "KILL'EM ALL FAKIN' METAL 2". In 1999, TANKARD from Germany was invited to Japan, and Shuji Izaki (vocals) joined the band, but left after the tour in Japan with TANKARD. Kita (vocals) joined the band. In 2000, they participated in the compilation CD "BALL ONE STRIKE TWO". In the same year, they toured in Korea. However, Kita left the band after this tour. Eiji Yokoyama, the current vocalist, joined the band. His emotional and aggressive performance further enhanced the band's potential. The band started to work on the second album, but Takeyari (Ds) left the band in 2001. In 2002, the current drummer, Takashi Yano, joined the band. In 2006, "RED HOT BURNING HELL Vol. 8" was released from Lights Out Records. Finally, their second album "GROUND FLARE" was released on September 9, 2006. Yokoyama's powerful and emotional vocalization, Yasuno's powerful riffs and technical solo work, Enari's snarling bass, the band's brain behind most of the lyrics, and Yano's inexhaustible drumming... Japanese power metal is here!
