Lighting the Flame: Bow Wow’s ‘Signal Fire’ (VIH-6005)
Today we continue exploring the crucial early work of pioneering Japanese hard rock band Bow Wow, focusing on their second studio album, “Signal Fire,” released with the catalog number VIH-6005 with obi and poster.
Issued in 1977 on the Invitation label (Victor), this 12-inch vinyl LP followed hot on the heels of their explosive 1976 debut. “Signal Fire” captures the band building upon the raw energy of their first release, further developing their powerful hard rock sound while solidifying their reputation as a formidable musical force.
This album showcases Bow Wow honing their craft, delivering another dose of high-octane rock heavily influenced by British hard rock but imbued with their unique Japanese intensity. Listeners can expect the continued evolution of their signature sound: driving guitar riffs, virtuosic solos, powerful vocals, and a tight, energetic rhythm section. “Signal Fire” represents the band confidently establishing their musical identity early in their influential career.
VIH-6005 is a vital piece of the Bow Wow legacy and the history of Japanese hard rock. It captures a foundational band firing on all cylinders, further cementing the powerful sound that would pave the way for the J-Metal explosion of the 1980s.
