Continuing the Evolution: Earthshaker’s ‘Smash’ (RT28-5249)
Today we explore another chapter in the extensive career of Japanese hard rock veterans Earthshaker, focusing on their 1988 studio album, “Smash,” released on the Eastworld label (Toshiba EMI) with the catalog number RT28-5249 with obi.
Arriving after their Eastworld debut “Aftershock,” this 12-inch vinyl LP finds Earthshaker further navigating the musical landscape of the late 1980s. While their roots remained firmly planted in the melodic hard rock they pioneered, albums from this era typically showcased a continued refinement and polish in production and songwriting.
“Smash” likely builds upon the direction established on “Aftershock,” offering a collection of expertly crafted rock songs. Listeners can expect the band’s signature blend of powerful, emotive vocals and skillful, catchy guitar work, likely enhanced by the polished production and potentially incorporating keyboard textures characteristic of late 80s AOR and melodic rock. It represents the band operating as seasoned professionals, delivering high-quality rock tailored for the times.
RT28-5249 captures Earthshaker well into their second major label phase, demonstrating their ability to adapt and maintain relevance while staying true to their core musical strengths. “Smash” stands as another solid entry in the discography of these enduring Japanese rock legends.
