Munetaka Higuchi

Possibly one of the few Japanese bands that gained a decent following away from their home shores in the 80's. Formed in Osaka in 1981 they released four records in their homeland before hooking up with the then Twisted Sister co-manager Joe Gerber. This track is taken from their fifth releaese Thunder In The East and I believe their first entirely sung in English.
Their hook up with Joe Gerber led to tours in Europe and the United States with the likes of Motley Crue, Poison, AC/DC and Stryper. The next album (Lightning Strikes) gave them their huge break through in the States - before they replaced their original vocalist with American vocalist Mike Vescera - and from there it seemed to go down hill for the band, but they are still releasing records today Metal Mad surfaced in February this year.
