Guitar Meets Science has shared a new mini-documentary. Check it out below:
“This week, we dive into the blues-soaked, arena-sized journey of Tora Tora—the Memphis-based hard rock band that brought soul to the Sunset Strip era, only to be sidelined by grunge and industry politics. From humble beginnings in a Tennessee warehouse to the MTV breakthrough of Surprise Attack, their meteoric rise was the stuff of dreams. But when corporate shakeups and cultural shifts threatened to erase them, Tora Tora responded not with defeat, but with heart, unity, and an unrelenting return. We’ll trace their entire arc: the battle-of-the-bands win that started it all, the classic tracks like ‘Walkin’ Shoes’ and ‘Phantom Rider’, the shelved masterpiece Revolution Day, the cancer scare that reunited them, and their triumphant comeback with Bastards Of Beale. Tora Tora weren’t just another ’80s band—they were Memphis thunder in a hair-metal storm.”
