Sunburst (我武者羅, Gamushara) is the twenty-eighth studio album by Japanese heavy metal band Loudness. It is their first double album, as well as the first album released on their own label, Katana Music.
Loudness manages to go back to the band's roots with a vibrant heavy metal sound focused on gripping riffs and technically stunning guitar solos, a more dominant and skilled bass guitar sound, some ferocious powerhouse drumming and passionate vocals that sound much darker and heavier than Michael Vescera's conventional melodic hard rock style.
Current label: Katana Music. Years active: 1981-present. Japanese name: ラウドネス. Loudness was formed in 1981 by Akira Takasaki, Munetaka Higuchi, and Hiroyuki Tanaka who were transitioning from rock band Lazy to trying their hand at a heavy metal band, unhappy with the musical direction of Lazy.
