Let’s focus on a pivotal and high-quality album from Japanese hard rock pioneers Bow Wow: “Warning From Stardust.” Released on September 21, 1982, via the Vap label, this 12-inch vinyl LP (catalog number 30041-28) marks a significant moment in their history. This particular copy includes the original obi strip.
This album stands as the band’s ninth studio release and, crucially, their final studio album under the “Bow Wow” name before their evolution into Vow Wow. It arrived after the band had gained significant international experience, including playing major UK festivals like Reading. This experience is reflected in the album’s confident, powerful, and high-quality sound.
Produced by the band and mastered by the legendary George Peckham (“A Porky prime cut”), “Warning From Stardust” is praised by fans for its excellent production, with each instrument sounding clear and powerful. The 11-track album is packed with top-tier heavy metal and hard rock, showcasing the band firing on all cylinders. Tracks like “You’re Mine,” “Heels Of The Wind,” “20th Century Child,” and the title track highlight their signature sound, enriched by layered guitars (riffs, cutting parts, harmonies) and shared vocal duties between members, all of whom sound in peak form.
“Warning From Stardust” (30041-28) captures Bow Wow at a mature peak, delivering a powerful, internationally-minded heavy metal album just before their next major transformation. The release came complete with an obi and an English/Japanese lyrics insert.
