Ryuichi Sakamoto - E-3A
Give this track a listen. The album came out in 1980, and the version I had was a beautifully packaged cassette tape imported from Japan. I bought it as a young teenager at Tower Records in Mt. View… probably with the tips from my barista/bookstore job at The Upstart Crow & Company.
By the way, Andy Partridge from XTC played guitar on this album. Okay, so who is more heavy metal than you? That would probably be me. \m/
