In my opinion, even though Loudness will NEVER be the metal band that released "Thunder In The East," "Lightning Strikes," and "Hurricane Eyes," I can, STILL or ALWAYS, listen to and "rock out" to the aforementioned efforts, along with or as well as their EARLIER efforts!
Mortal Canción!!! Loudness y su guitarrista debería reconocerlo toda América como uno de los mejores y que el pueda también entrar entre los 10 mejores del mundo. Espero que Loudness lleguen a Colombia algún día!!! pues, hace poco estuvo aquí Iron Maiden y fue mortal su concierto!!! Saludes a Japon!!
Thanks for the info! You know you're a true fan of music when you can go from Loudness to Jellyfish and then back to Loudness. Even though music has changed for me over the years, they still get under my skin... in a good way! Shadows of War kicks ass!
haha, yeah, same with me. back in the day it was mostly metal, but now i can go from Dimmu Borgir to Jack Johnson and everything in between. i love music :)
時代が変わっててもLOUDNESSは樋口宗孝の居ない状態は考えられない!!

I watch the intro to that song 0:45 - 1:00 and think to myself "how the f**k does that guy do that?" That is incredible guitar wizardry.

I enjyoyed Himeji live88' through 1 to 8.
LOUDNESS,they are very attractive & powerful guys.
They give me great fine feeling.
I would enjyoy these videos again and again.
I never forget Munetaka Higuchi.
But I want LOUDNESS to continue active eternally.
Aikira Takasaki, Minoru Niihara, Masayoshi Yamashita and a new drummer,
I pray for their activity in the future.

Wonder why they changed the title here from" Ashes in the Sky" to "Shadows of War". Could be just for the the Japanese audience if I'm not mistaken.

dunno, but if you try and buy the album in the states now, it's called Shadows.. I preferred Ashes.
