The legendary Japanese metal band has confirmed that it plans to record a new studio album later this year as part of its ongoing 45th anniversary celebration. The follow-up to 2021's Sunburst is already well underway, with guitarist Akira Takasaki having amassed dozens of ideas for the project.
"[Akira] wants to make a new album for 45th-anniversary something," Niihara said in an interview. "He's got ideas, 30 songs already. And then he will make more. Yeah, we will [record] maybe 10 songs from 30 songs. But [it will be released] pretty soon. Maybe end of this year."
During the mid-1980s, Loudness became one of the few Japanese rock bands to break into the American mainstream, touring extensively and earning airplay on MTV with songs including "Crazy Nights." Their technical musicianship, blistering guitar work and melodic songwriting helped pave the way for countless metal acts that followed.
The upcoming album will be the band's first studio effort since Sunburst, a 16-song double album that celebrated the group's long history while showcasing that its signature blend of melody and power remained firmly intact.
"There are musicians who create one new band after another, but I wanted to stick with one band," Takasaki said in a 2022 interview. "Maybe I'm clumsy in a way. But that's the way I live my life."
