German power metal band AT VANCE have recorded a charity cover song for the people of Japan titled 'Tokyo'.

At Vance's Olaf Lenk, a man who had some of his biggest success in the land of the rising sun, was shocked to hear from the catastrophe, just like so many others:

“As soon as I heard the news from the things happening in Japan I felt the need of doing at least something little that could help these people and ease the pain. Actually Rick had the idea to release a track and donate everything to Japan. As we thought of a song the track 'Tokyo' came into my mind and I thought it would suit very well. So I hope lots of people buy this one and help these people to get over this horrible situation."
