Contents Introduction The first installment of "HR/HM LEGEND 1000," the hard rock & heavy metal edition of Sony Music's popular 1000 yen foreign music series. 50 classic hard rock & heavy metal titles have been carefully selected from Sony Music's extensive catalog, primarily focusing on the two major labels, Columbia and RCA. In addition to well-known masterpieces and staple works, the selection also includes long-awaited reissues and rare titles making their CD debut. Special price of \1,000 + tax (\1,500 + tax for double albums). All titles include new liner notes. This is the sixth album overall and the first since the reunion of the pioneers of American heavy metal, after a temporary breakup, with new members and a fresh start. Driven by Tony Moore's high-pitched vocals, the sound is more metallic than before, yet their signature melancholic guitar phrases are scattered throughout, creating a versatile melodic speed metal sound. An aggressive and passionate, timeless metal anthem. [Limited Edition] Limited production until December 31, 2020 New liner notes (??No lyrics or translations) Media reviews and more Having established the new genre of "speed metal" with their previous work, they challenge themselves in new territory with their conceptual 7th album. The album clearly shows their aggressive stance with the bold introduction of a horn section featuring Tower of Power and the Brecker Brothers, the insertion of experimental sound effects, an unusual cover of Al Di Meola's "Racing with the Devil," and even the appearance of rap. Joe Lynn Turner and T.M. Stevens also participate. (C)RS
