Music question

[1976_Child]

If I was to ask you "which band recorded the album 'Floodland'" would you be able to tell me without looking it up?

 

The reason I ask is that I just bumped into someone who lived through the 80s/90s music scene and has never heard of it. Says he worked in the industry. I am amazed and think he is a fraud.

no. never heard of it

[1976_Child]

no. never heard of it

 

heathen. So i guess you won't have heard of Ned's Atomic Dustbin either?

[Hatch]

Heard of them. :-)

 

Looked up the Floodland one, I am familiar with the artist, although unable to name any of their singles or albums.

does Lady Gaga's Alejandro remind you of Ace of Bace? Very similar to I Saw The Sign.

Is there a 'shrugging shoulders' smiley.

Think so???

It reminds me of ABBA.

I didn't know but my missus got it. But then she did spend her youth dressed in black, wearing dodgy make up and hanging round shopping centres and bus stations looking ****ed off.

that very neatly sums up the acolytes of the genre! Brilliant!

This Corrosion is a bit of a classic, and the Lambchop cover version a work of beauty.
