Mmm.

Original UK release on CD (largely for "Dream Crazy," but I've got a bunch of boxes on the floor in front of the cabinet my turntable is on). US release just isn't as good. Band's well known for "Something About You" (10:44) but "Physical Presence" (5:16) is a personal favorite.

Kinda related to the Cars :p

 


I was looking through my music database, searching for notes indicating albums with covers, when this gem I'd all but forgotten (I last listened to it in the wake of Bowie's passing) appeared due to an appropriately bluesy rendition of John Lennon's "Working Class Hero" (appears at 31:18).

Lol.

80s music still rock my world up to these days. So sad that the current era doesn't make music as awesome like before.

I was 14 in 1986 and new wave and new romantic were the first genres that I saw as my own, for me rather than rubbing off on me.

More Bowie:

I don't really listen to J-Rock, but after feeling pumped up by the story trailer for Ryu Ga Gotoku (Yakuza) Kiwami 2, couldn't help but look into it.


And...the trailer:
 
Rickie Lee Jones' self-titled first release, after hearing "Chuck E's In Love" at the store. Thankfully I cleared out the area in front of my turntable, as I don't yet have this on CD.

 
Good times bad times
that may be so
You're just part of the game

...Got the album of Fire from the Gods after catching this song in my recommended box:



In a word, it's bloody spectacular. Okay, that's two words, but whatever. It's a good song regardless.

1981 debut album from Gleaming Spires, Songs of the Spires. "How to Get Girls Through Hypnotism" (track 7 above for better quality than link video) is a personal favorite from the album.

Sadly, the band's final album Welcoming a New Ice Age is nowhere to be found online in streamable form, otherwise I'd definitely have posted while listening to it before this one.
 
Kelela - Waitin



Been playing Kelela's debut album a lot over the last few weeks.
 

Katatonia - Brave Murder Day
