CHARGE

Digitally re-mastered reissue of the Japanese Prog/Hard Rock bands 1977 album. Outside of a handful of obscure Japanese Progressive Rock groups, Bow Wow were one of the first native groups to play in a style that suggested they might actually have international potential. Charge was Bow Wows third album and showcased a mature, and in some ways a more refined, approach to the bands evolving sound. Their previous record had, for all intents and purposes, been an all-out assault on the senses, but with this new album they rather cleverly fused intense Hard Rock riffing with a sense of mature drama, which suggested Bow Wow were not just a one dimensional beast. Rock Candy.
