Loudness - Jealousy

[sutuhadong]

"Jealousy" is an excellent Japanese-only EP that was released way back in 1988. I wasn't even aware it was released until several years later. A friend of mine picked up a copy of this, so I immediately began a search for a copy for myself. Luckily this disc is readily available as an import as Warner Bros. have re-issued several Loudness discs as part of a 2001 '20th Anniversary of Loudness' promotion in their home country. Unfortunately, Japanese imports are a bit pricey. I have read some conflicting reports about this disc. Some have said that while Loudness' American record company was forcing them to get an American singer to appeal to the Western audience, that the band retained Minoru for releases at home. Another review that I read stated that this was the last thing Minoru recorded with the band before being replaced by Michael Viscera. Regardless of the situation, "Jealousy" is much heavier than anything the band had done on "Hurricane Eyes" and is a bit more like the Judas Priest inspired metal of "Thunder in the East." "Long Distance Love" is the most commercial of the tracks with a sing-along chorus, "Can't stop this Long Dis-tance love baby."
