Tokyo’s Thunderroads are one of the few current bands to truly embody the spirit of early 70's Motor City Rock ‘n Roll. And on their debut album Thunderroads yield a similar high-energy, riff Rockin’ electricity when they plug into the raw, rowdy sounds of the Motor City and let it rip. ‘Thunder City Burning’ is a rapid-fire barrage of roaring, high-voltage guitars that sounds like a crash‘n burn mix of the Stooges, Sonic's Rendezvous Band and the MC5 hot-wired through the primal, raunch of mid - late 70's trailblazers like Radio Birdman, the Dead Boys, Kiss and the Ramones. They throw in nods to Power Pop and Proto Punk here and there; but at the core it’s all guitars blazing, souped up Rock ‘n Roll backed by a supercharged, driving rhythm section set to full speed go . Songs like “Dead Emotion”, “Do You Love Rock ‘n Roll” and “Sword, Guitar & Chainsaw” bleed ferocity, and the album couldn’t close with a more fitting tune than “Detroit Blood”. A balls out, Punk Rockin’, riff destroyer that tells you everything you need to know about this scorching band from Japan. Deluxe packaging on this release too. The album includes a super slick looking gloss-varnished record cover and the LP comes securely housed in a beefy printed inner dust sleeve showcasing the bands lyrics with additional Thunderroads live action photos as well.
