Formed around guitarist Andy Boulton he was joined on their debut by Alan Marsh on lead vocals John Wiggins on guitar Andy Robbins on bass and Steve Pierce on drums making a significant impact on the burgeoning NWOBHM scene. By 1984 they'd developed enough of a reputation to appear alongside Metallica and Venom at Holland's Aardschock festival.・ By by the time of the second full-length album 1984's \"Night Of The Blade\" (CD 2 of this release) Boulton had been joined by Vicki James Wright on lead vocals who ended up replacing Alan March's vocals that had already been recorded for the LP with Andy Wrighton replacing Andy Robbins on bass. This was also their first album released on Powerstation Records the British independent HM label.・ In 1985 they released their third full-length LP this time for their own (slightly consumptive sounding) TB Records. \"Black Hearts \u0026amp; Jaded Spades\" saw a move away from the more NWOBHM and melodic hard rock flavour of their earliest releases towards a more glammed-up radio friendly keyboard augmented sound aimed more towards the US and Japanese markets.・ This part of the story is rounded off by a fourth disc collecting together many rare EPs singles and non-album cuts from the early 1980s including tracks from \"The Cave Sessions\" \"Undercover Honeymoon\" 12\" \"Midnight Rendezvous\" EP and \"Madame Guillotine\" EP. Featuring lengthy and detailed liner notes from note NWOBHM and Tokyo Blade expert John Tucker Tokyo Blade continue to play live and release records to this date.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTracklisting:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.Powergame\u003cbr\u003e2.Break The Chains\u003cbr\u003e3.If Heaven Is Hell\u003cbr\u003e4.On Through The Night\u003cbr\u003e5.Killer City\u003cbr\u003e6.Liar\u003cbr\u003e7.Tonight\u003cbr\u003e8.Sunrise In Tokyo\u003cbr\u003e9.Blue Ridge Mountains Of Virginia\u003cbr\u003e10.Playroom Of Poison Dreams\u003cbr\u003e11.Monkeys Blood\u003cbr\u003e12.Shadows Of Insanity\u003cbr\u003e13.School House Is Burning\u003cbr\u003e14.Jezzabel\u003cbr\u003e15.Monkey's Blood\u003cbr\u003e16.Undercover Honeymoon\u003cbr\u003e17.Playroom Of Poison Dreams\u003cbr\u003e18.Stealing The Thief\u003cbr\u003e19.Bottom End\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HNE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44956377547041,"sku":"5013929918009","price":6381.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/products\/5013929918009.jpg?v=1681585752","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/products\/5013929918009","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
