Forging Their Own Path: Show-Ya’s ‘Ways’ (WTP-90427)
Today we revisit the powerful all-female Japanese hard rock band Show-Ya, focusing on their second studio album, “Ways,” released with the catalog number WTP-90427. This copy includes the original obi strip.
Issued in 1986 on the Eastworld label (Toshiba EMI), this 12-inch vinyl LP followed their impactful debut, “Masquerade Show.” “Ways” finds Show-Ya building upon their initial success, further developing their signature blend of potent hard rock and heavy metal infused with strong melodic sensibilities.
The album showcases the band operating as an increasingly confident and cohesive unit. Listeners can expect the driving energy established on their debut: powerful, commanding vocals, skillful and memorable guitar riffs and solos, prominent keyboard textures adding depth, and a tight, powerful rhythm section laying down the foundation. “Ways” delivers another collection of well-crafted, anthemic rock songs, demonstrating their growth as songwriters and performers.
WTP-90427 represents Show-Ya solidifying their place in the Japanese rock scene. “Ways” is a strong sophomore effort, capturing the band’s continued evolution and delivering high-quality 80s hard rock. The inclusion of the obi strip makes this a desirable item for collectors.
