Sounding the Alarm: The ‘Metal Warning’ Compilation (38EC-2001)

Today we revisit a crucial compilation that captured the explosive energy of the Japanese heavy metal scene in the mid-1980s: “Metal Warning,” released as a double LP set on the Vice label with the catalog number 38EC-2001 with obi.

Issued in 1985, this comprehensive 2 x Vinyl collection served as a vital showcase, bringing together a diverse array of bands active during J-Metal’s golden era. Compilations like this were instrumental in documenting the breadth and depth of the scene, featuring both established names and rising talents.

Spread across two LPs, “Metal Warning” offers a powerful snapshot of the various styles within Japanese heavy metal at the time.

This collection provides an invaluable cross-section of the 1985 J-Metal landscape, from traditional heavy metal to more aggressive or unique approaches emerging from the scene. For collectors and enthusiasts seeking to understand the vibrancy and talent pool of this pivotal era, the Vice label’s “Metal Warning” (38EC-2001) remains an essential and expansive document.
