Brand New Single WHAT THE HELL out 21st February 2005
Island Records Cat. No.
CD: What The Hell/ Everybody Thats Right/ This Means War 7: What The Hell/ Everybody Thats Right
Their blaze of liphook riffs, brazen dual guitar soloing and killer harmonies - addictive, Ramones-dumb, with tumescent guitar-splooj abounding - is like a guilty pleasure, without the guilt. Irony-free stadium-rock heroes in waiting."
Stevie Chick, KERRANG!
Tokyo Dragons gear up to the release of their debut album, Give Me The Fear - set to became the rocknroll party anthem record of 2005 - with a thunderous slice of unabashed ROCK! in the shape of brand new single What The Hell, built around a huge driving riff, resplendent with rabble-rousing yeah!-yeah! gang-chorus.
What The Hell is released on CD single and 7 on 21st February through Island Records, produced once again by Pedro Ferreira. The dominatrix illustration on the sleeve (continuing the girl cover star theme set by the Get Em Off single) is by Chris Weston of 2000AD/ D.C. Comics who also contributes the spectacular album art work. Check http://www.chrisweston.co.uk/ for more info.
Boisterous to the point of belligerence, Tokyo Dragons have risked life and limb bringing their own lascivious brand of rock'n'roll mayhem to the people. Whether it be wild-west cowboy towns in Cornwall, or hardened rugby-playin', people-hatin' rock-monsters in the very depths of the Welsh valleys, this band can, and have rocked em all. Following on from tours with The Datsuns, Winnebago Deal and Therapy?, they join The Quireboys on their February tour (see below). "Make no mistake, says Metal Hammer, this band have it all."
