Das has a good music education. Don't forget The Sound I can't escape myself. The waterboys Pan within. The Stranglers Midnight summer dream. REM The one I love. So much good alternative music in the 80's.

Such a great band, unique sound and soulful vocals. I had the fortune of catching them live in London some years ago - as the warmup act for New Order.

I saw in an interview that Courtney Love introduced echo & the bunnymen music to Kurt Cobain because she liked them. When he listened he said it was romantic.

They were popular with lots of American punks/ post punks. But a very young Courtney did live in Pete de Freitas’s flat for a little while in the early 80s.

Yeah definitely dark and moody, fitted well with 80s puberty! Totally agree about 1984 too. Ye mentioned Talking Heads..hint hint lol.

Huh? They were a post punk band in thr early 80s. Saw them in Australia in 81. No one called them either of those terms. Neo psychaedelic stuck for a bit.

It’s not dark, it’s melancholic. Back then most of the alternative bands were melancholic. It was a rebellion towards the happy go easy music that dominated

@@reactionextraction It was just a term we used for people who dressed in black and looked very unhappy lol and listened to this type of music. back in the day everyone was pidgeon holed, i was a Rude Boy for a couple years (into ska music) then a New Romantic ( into Duran Duran, Spandua etc) then i got into House music for a bit, I'm not proud of that lol now i like all sorts of music even Take That a boy band. I don't think kids today have the same groups and the fashion and haircuts etc as we did? The 80s was so much fun.
