FrostByte Media have set an August 14th release date for Eve To Dawn, the new album from Japanese heavy weights Loudness. We were sent this info:Eve To Dawn marks the legendary Japanese band's 26th studio album since their inception in 1981 (Loudness just celebrated their 30th anniversary last year). Eve To Dawn is a spectacularly heavy opus from the "beast from the east" and is Loudness' first North American release in years.
Known for their blistering technical ability, Loudness was formed in Japan in 1981 by guitarist Akira Takasaki and late drummer Munetaka Higuchi. With four very successful and critically-acclaimed albums under their belt in their native Japan, Loudness became the first Japanese heavy metal band to sign to a major label in the United States.
