    Thats just not true!

    Stick in the mud !!! There are loads and loads of great 80s bands!!! It was a ground breaking time, with electronic keyboards and synths etc. I suspect that some people just didn’t like those kinds of sounds.

    But….
    what about

    altered images
    aerosmiths
    kate bush
    elvis costello
    joe jackson
    the cure
    depeche mode
    echo and the bunnymen
    everything but the girl
    faith no more
    japan
    level 42
    madness
    morrissey
    OMD
    The police
    prince
    siouxie and the banshees
    sparks

    the 80,s was a brilliant era for music, punk came along in the late 70,s with a BANG !! and set off all the different fashions , music , , we had mods , new romantics , skin heads , punks , rockers , nutty boys , there was new wave , i loved it ( mod lol ) still am .
    every teenager belonged to some kinda fashion group which was related to the music they liked (probably a bit like the 60.s, maybe if the teens of today had that sence of belonging , a family outside of a family so to speak , there would be less trouble , every seams to be either a hoody or a chav these days

    first time ive ever heard anybody that lived through the 80.s era say it was shyt
    i had the time of my life , and it was all down to the music.

    Remember rolling in one night slightly worse for wear after a very good night. Putting my dads headphones on and bopping around to this tune only to discover a very irrate dad stood in the lounge doorway. Yep it was on full volume & I’d pulled the plug out & woke the whole house at 3am. Ooooops :lol: :wink:
