Marking a New Era: Vow Wow’s ‘Beat Of Metal Motion’ (WTP-80196)
Today’s entry focuses on a pivotal album marking the transition of Japanese hard rock legends Bow Wow into their new identity as Vow Wow. We are looking at the 1984 album ‘Beat Of Metal Motion,’ released on the Eastworld label (Toshiba EMI) with the catalog number WTP-80196.
This 12-inch vinyl LP is often considered the first official album under the Vow Wow name, signaling a slight evolution in their sound and international aspirations. While still rooted in the powerful hard rock foundation laid during their Bow Wow years, ‘Beat Of Metal Motion’ showcases the band refining their style for the mid-80s.
The album delivers high-energy heavy metal and hard rock, driven by exceptional guitar work, powerful vocals now handled by a new singer cementing the Vow Wow lineup, a driving rhythm section, and potentially more prominent keyboard textures compared to their earliest Bow Wow material. It captured the band adapting to the evolving metal landscape while retaining their core strengths.
WTP-80196 represents a significant moment in the band’s history, bridging their Bow Wow past with their Vow Wow future. It captured the band adapting to the evolving metal landscape while retaining their core strengths, making it a crucial release for understanding this transitional phase.
