This 80's new wave compilation features many gems and rarities, several of the songs even being available for the first time on CD. Not only for maniacs, it's definitely a good opportunity to get accustomed with many leaders of Japan's new wave scene such as Plastics, P-Model, Moonriders and Hikashu.
Nomiya Maki fans will be happy to find her not only on a demo version of Portable Rock's "Idol", but also guesting on Mio Fou's "Milano no kiseki".
