A remastered classic, this entry focuses on the 2007 CD reissue of Earthshaker’s legendary third album, “Midnight Flight.” Released on March 7, 2007, via the Nexus label (catalog number KICS 2903), this CD was part of the “Nexus Masterpiece 1500” reissue series, bringing a classic album to a new generation.
Originally released in 1984, “Midnight Flight” is widely regarded by many as Earthshaker’s ultimate masterpiece, the album that perfected their signature “Shaker style” of melodic hard rock. Produced by Masa Itoh and recorded at The Automatt, it boasts a polished, international sound.
This 8-track album is celebrated for its flawless quality, featuring no filler. It kicks off with an iconic trio of classics: “T-O-K-Y-O,” the title track “Midnight Flight,” and their massive, enduring hit single, “Radio Magic.” The rest of the album, including “Zawameku Tokieto” and “Tada Kanashiku,” continues to deliver the band’s perfect blend of hard rock power, beautiful, emotional melodies, and unique lyrical themes.
This remastered reissue (KICS 2903) offers a pristine listening experience of a foundational J-Metal album. It’s often recommended, alongside “Fugitive,” as the ideal starting point for anyone new to Earthshaker, capturing them at their absolute creative peak.
