LOUDNESS crazy samurai TKCA-72684

Let’s focus on a powerful CD maxi-single from Japanese heavy metal legends, Loudness. This is “Crazy Samurai,” released on July 7, 2004, via the Japan Record / Tokuma Japan Communications label with the catalog number TKCA-72684.

This release features the classic, reunited lineup of Minoru Niihara (vocals), Akira Takasaki (guitar), Masayoshi Yamashita (bass), and Munetaka Higuchi (drums), delivering their signature heavy metal sound.

Produced by the band themselves, the single features three potent tracks:
1. Crazy Samurai
2. R.I.P.
3. Cyber Soul (Live)

The first two tracks are powerful studio recordings, while the third track, “Cyber Soul,” was captured live during their “Loudness Live Terror 2004” tour, showcasing their formidable stage presence during this era.

Recorded and mixed at Paradise Studio and mastered at Rolling Sound Mastering Studio, TKCA-72684 is an essential release for fans, capturing the reunited band in top form.
