 (3 Customer Reviews)
Loudness was a Japanese hard rock quartet that had numerous hit albums in the 80's and early 90's. On The Prowl (1991) has been available only as a high price Japanese import, when you can find it. Wounded Bird. 2003.
Loudness: Mike Vescera (vocals); Akira Takasaki (guitar); Masayoshi Yamashita (bass); Munetaka Higuchi (drums).
In the 1980s, Loudness was one of the top heavy metal units in Japan, which was an extremely strong market for metal and hard rock. The band, however, never received much attention in the U.S., and On the Prowl was far from the commercial breakthrough the headbangers were hoping for. When this CD came out in 1991, Loudness had a non-Japanese lead singer, Mike Vescera, and was going for a slick sound that was sort of Mötley Crüe-meets-Ratt-meets Warlock. Not fabulous but usually decent, the album does have its moments -- most notably, "In the Mirror," "Deadly Player" and "Find a Way." What On the Prowl didn't have was a major hit that would make Loudness a big name in the U.S., where the vast majority of headbangers had never even heard of the band. ~ Alex Henderson

Emperor (Black Metal): Ihsahn (vocals, guitar); Samoth (guitar); Charmand Grimloch (keyboards, background vocals); Trym (drums).
As black metal's fully enthroned reigning kings, Emperor are truly an interesting, intriguing act, combining the soaring, operatic, orchestral sensibilities of classical music with the pomposity, technical skill, and brutality of various types of heavy metal. What emerges from that Norwegian cocoon is something entirely new, or ...
| | Loudness Thunder In The East CD (1985)
On The Prowl
$9.69  
Loudness was a Japanese hard rock quartet that had numerous hit albums in the 80's and early 90's. Thunder In The East reached number 74 on the Billboard charts in 1985. Wounded Bird. 2003.
Loudness: Minoru Nihara (vocals); Akira Takasaki (guitar); Masayoshi Yamashita (bass); Munetaka Higuchi (drums).
With 1985's Thunder in the East, Loudness were faced with the daunting challenge of conquering heavy metal fans outside their homeland of Japan for the first time. Knowing that their early sound might prove a tad too heavy and complex for American audiences, the foursome rose to the occasion by dispensing their most melodic compositions ever. Yet, except for ...
| | Loudness Hurricane Eyes CD (1987)
On The Prowl
$9.69 
Though it failed to equal the mostly novelty-based sales of Loudness' first internationally distributed album Thunder in the East, Lightning Strikes had handily managed to translate the band's Japanese-bred heavy metal into a more easily digestible recipe for Western audiences. Because this progress didn't translate into sales, however, their record company, Atco, felt the need to force the band's hand toward an even more pop-metal ...

There are two basic types of tribute albums. The first kind gathers generally well-known artists to cover songs by an important influence (or to reinterpret that artist's music in their own style). The second kind is generally put out by smaller labels hoping to generate revenue by using the influential artist's name recognition to sell a set of cover tunes by an agglomeration ...
| | Soul Classics Vol. 1 CD (1998)
On The Prowl
$10.59
Collectables' somewhat generically titled Soul Classics series actually focuses on the romantic side of style, gathering soulful love songs from the '70s. Soul Classics, Vol. 1 features the Isley Brothers' "For the Love of You," the Intruders' "I Wanna Know Your Name," and David Ruffin's "Statue of a Fool" among the highlights of its eight selections. Though each of the album's cuts, which include work by Phyllis Hyman, Earth, Wind & Fire, and the O'Jays, is solid, the collection's overall length is too short to recommend it to anyone but the most casual fans of classic soul. ~ Heather Phares
Although its song selection is a little haphazard, EMI-Capitol Special Markets' Soul Classics, Vol. 1 is a nice sampler ...
| | WCBS FM: Motown, Soul And Rock N Roll - Soul CD (2003)
On The Prowl
$13.29
This third installment in the series specially crafted by Collectables for WSNI FM focuses on the greatest hits of one of the most revered labels in pop music: Motown. With every single one of the 25 songs contained herein being either a chart-topper or a major hit, it's hard to refute this as nothing more than an extremely well-sequenced compilation covering Motown's glory years, and at an economically sensible price, it serves as an ideal starting point to those unfamiliar with Motown's vast arsenal of soulful hits. Simply outstanding from start to finish.~ Rob Theakston
Collectables' 2003 compilation WCBS FM: Motown, Soul and Rock n Roll - Motown delivers 25 tracks of pure Motown gold. It was put together by Joe McCoy from WCBS FM and plays like what one might hope the radio would sound like in heaven. Every song is a hit and the disc flows like a river of sweet champagne. The songs are a fine mix of up-tempo dancefloor fillers like the Marvelettes' "Please Mr. Postman" and the Contours' "Do You Love Me" and heartbroken ballads like the Temptations' "Just My Imagination (Running Away With Me)" and Jimmy Ruffin's "What Becomes of the Brokenhearted." The only flaw in the presentation is the duplication of "I Heard It Through the Grapevine." Both Gladys Knight's and Marvin Gaye's version are included at the expense of some other Motown classic. Still this is a set that is destined to get listeners up on their feet and dancing or at very least singing along at the top of their lungs. There are tons of Motown collections out there but this is one of the best. ~ Tim Sendra
KFRC Oldies - Motown, Soul & Great Rock n' Roll: Rock n' Roll is a varied and quite solid 25-song collection of chart-toppers from the '60s compiled by Joe McCoy of WCBS. Now why a DJ from WCBS compiled a disc that is billed as a presentation of KFRC oldies is a question that will only nag at the most retentive of music fans. The rest will just be happy to enjoy the music, as it is first-rate from beginning to end. McCoy draws tracks from many different styles: folk-rock (the Mamas & the Papas' "Monday, Monday," Scott Mackenzie's "San Francisco"), girl group (the Angels' "My Boyfriend's Back," Lesley Gore's "It's My Party"), British Invasion (Manfred Mann's "Do Wah Diddy Diddy," the Troggs' "Wild Thing"), and good old American pop (the Beach Boys' "Help Me Rhonda," the Turtles' "Happy Together," the Lovin' Spoonful's "Do You Believe in Magic?"). Any disc with those last three songs on it is worth owning, ...

If Trustkill really wants to cash in on the pop-punk craze, there's got to be a better way to do it than through New Jersey's Crash Romeo. On their debut, Minutes to Miles, it's like the band has rehashed clichés that have worked well for others but in their hands combine to create one utterly forgettable record. Though the murderous album artwork may remind one of a band like My Chemical Romance, Crash Romeo is actually more like a stupider version ...
