Anyone Like 80's British New Wave Music ?

Okay. I could do this all day long...

Psychedelic Furs





Depeche Mode



The Smiths



These alone are worthy of the home entertainment room cost! Crank it up and put in a John Hughes movie. Molly Ringwald is calling and wants her CDs back...

Who doesn't love '80s New Wave!!! So many to choose from but some of my faves are:

These should keep you going.

English Beat – Save It For Later


Joy Division – Love Will Tear Us Apart


alldaylong, I’m down with the Talking Heads making the cut!!

I know, Joy Division, 1979, but it still rocks!

Some nice additions thus far. Keep it up.

Ah, some delectable Gary Numan.

Does his new stuff count?

I mean he still makes 80's British new wave.

Member alldaylong,

I have been jammin to songs in this thread, and have finally read the whole thing (que-ing up songs to play) when I realized there is a band missing.

No one has posted this yet?


Totally uncool.

I saw BAD II, my friend worked for them

this one falls into its own spectrum of weirdness





it's fun for all ages yet it fit perfectly in the 80s

safety dance!

There were a few good ones I would admit, but overall I think that the 80s music was inferior to the 70s and 90s music. I appreciate the experimentation in the early years of MTV, but, and it is my own bias growing up on 70s head music, that the 80s pretty much sucked.

However, the use of analog synths took a lot more thought and creativity to use compared to later digital synths. I guess I'm conflicted about 80s music, except the big haired glam rock metal, I still hate that.
