🐯 Tygers of Pan Tang – Spellbound (Japanese Papersleeve Edition)
Originally released in 1981, Spellbound marks a defining moment in the New Wave of British Heavy Metal (NWOBHM), showcasing the Tygers of Pan Tang at their most ferocious and melodic. With the arrival of powerhouse vocalist Jon Deverill and guitar virtuoso John Sykes (later of Thin Lizzy and Whitesnake), the band sharpened their sound into a blend of raw aggression and refined hooks.
This Japanese limited edition reissue from the Hard & Heavy Papersleeve Collection faithfully recreates the original LP packaging in miniature CD format, complete with:
-
🧾 Japanese liner notes, lyrics, and English translations
-
📜 Lyric insert and replica inner sleeve
-
🖼️ Free autographed poster featuring the band among ancient ruins
-
💿 2007 remastered audio for enhanced clarity and punch
The iconic cover art—featuring a tiger prowling a moonlit ledge—sets the tone for an album steeped in mystique, danger, and NWOBHM grandeur.
