Claiming the Throne: Show-Ya’s Sophomore Album ‘Queendom’ (WTP-90387)
Let’s explore the second studio album from Japan’s premier all-female hard rock band, Show-Ya, titled “Queendom.” Released in 1986 on the Eastworld label (Toshiba EMI), this 12-inch vinyl LP carries the catalog number WTP-90387. This particular copy includes the original obi strip.
Following their successful 1985 debut “Masquerade Show,” “Queendom” finds Show-Ya confidently building upon their initial impact, further establishing their powerful presence in the Japanese rock scene. The album showcases the band solidifying their signature blend of hard rock energy and strong melodic sensibilities across its ten tracks.
“Queendom” features the tight musicianship of the classic lineup: Keiko Terada’s commanding vocals, Miki Igarashi’s skillful guitar work, Miki Nakamura’s atmospheric keyboards, Satomi Senba’s driving bass, and Miki Tsunoda’s powerful drumming. The album delivers another collection of high-energy, anthemic rock songs, demonstrating their growth as songwriters and performers within the polished hard rock framework of the mid-80s.
WTP-90387 captures Show-Ya consolidating their power and proving they were a force to be reckoned with. “Queendom” stands as a strong sophomore effort, essential for understanding the band’s development and appreciating their contribution to 80s Japanese hard rock. The included obi strip enhances its value for collectors.
