A fascinating release from the band E.Z.O is the focus for this entry, highlighting their 7-inch single “Here It Comes.” Released on March 21, 1987, via the Invitation label (catalog number VIHX-1709), this 45 RPM vinyl was a key piece of their major international debut.
This single, which came out just before their self-titled album, perfectly illustrates the band’s global ambition following their name change from Flatbacker. It was famously produced by KISS’s Gene Simmons and Val Garay, recorded and mixed at top-tier L.A. studios like Record One.
The 7-inch is particularly interesting as it presents two distinct versions of the same song:
A1: Here It Comes (Japanese Version)
B1: Here It Comes (English Version)
This dual-language release bridged the gap between their Japanese roots (with the Japanese lyrics co-written by the band) and their new, English-focused international direction. VIHX-1709 stands as a powerful snapshot of this pivotal transition, delivering their polished, US-produced heavy metal sound in both formats for fans.
