Unleashing the Attack: Sabbrabells’ ‘Dog Fight’ EP (SVR-1501)
Let’s dive back into the darker corners of the mid-80s Japanese heavy metal underground with Sabbrabells. This focus is on their 12-inch EP, “Dog Fight,” released on the Sound World / S.V. Labo label with the catalog number SVR-1501.
Issued on September 21, 1985, this 33 ⅓ RPM EP arrived after their influential self-titled debut album. “Dog Fight” continued to showcase the band’s potent and often menacing brand of heavy metal, a sound that distinguished them within the Kansai scene.
This EP offers four tracks of pure J-Metal intensity:
A1: Metal Saber
A2: Water Night
B1: Stop The Motion
B2: Dog Fight
These songs deliver Sabbrabells’ signature style: aggressive riffing, a heavy and powerful rhythm section, and commanding vocals exploring dark themes. As an independent release, it captures the raw energy and uncompromising vision of the band. Notably, this EP originally came with a lyric insert but was never issued with an obi strip.
SVR-1501 stands as another crucial document of Sabbrabells’ contribution to the Japanese heavy metal underground. For collectors and fans seeking the authentic, darker side of the 80s J-Metal movement, the “Dog Fight” EP remains a powerful and sought-after release.
