1	Dead Man's Party (1985) more music like this by Oingo Boingo Returning after a two-year recording hiatus (during which bandleader Danny Elfman recorded a solo album), Oingo Boingo forsook the excesses of smart-aleck humor and quirky production that had led critics almost universally to dismiss the band's first four albums. The sound is still maybe just a bit too uptight and over-determined, but the horn ... see all copies from $8.66! new only from $8.66!
2	Only a Lad (1981) more music like this by Oingo Boingo Only a Lad introduced the world to a man who would later become one of its most recognizable popular composers. Danny Elfman, later to write the score for The Simpsons as well as countless movie soundtracks, formed Oingo Boingo in 1977, but it wasn't until Only a Lad's 1981 release that they achieved national recognition. Only a Lad contains ... see all copies from $7.00! new only from $8.66!
3	Nothing to Fear (1982) more music like this by Oingo Boingo Though Nothing to Fear is by no means Oingo Boingo's best album, it is certainly not as bad as many near-sighted critics have asserted. Elfman's songwriting, even when he's not firing on all cylinders, still blows the hinges off most of his peers on their best days. It is true that many songs on this go-around lack the smooth transitions that ... see all copies from $3.98! new only from $3.98!
4	Dark at the End of the Tunnel (1990) more music like this by Oingo Boingo Danny Elfman, lead singer of Oingo Boingo, knows how to make great music. With his penetrating charisma he can pull many a song through in his own wacky direction and style, making it equally dark and fun. Dark at the End of the Tunnel seems misguided, as though Elfman has lost sense of the music he is "meant" to make, or maybe he had been ... see all copies from $4.82! new only from $4.82!
5	Boi-ngo (1987) more music like this by Oingo Boingo Oingo Boingo have shortened their name to the more direct "Boingo," but their music hasn't changed. Even it longer sounds quite as fresh, it remains the warped, party-friendly dance music that it always has been. Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide see all copies from $2.62! new only from $2.62!
6	'80s Hits Back (1996) more music like this by Various Artists '80s Hits Back is an enjoyable scattershot collection of 12 Top Ten hits from the '80s. The compilation doesn't follow any strict genre -- there are new wave hits like Oingo Boingo's "Weird Science," and Men Without Hats' "Safety Dance," Katrina & the Waves' "Walking on Sunshine," as well as late-'80s pop-soul like Was (Not Was)'s "Walk the ... see all copies from $3.99! new only from $8.66!
7	Best O' Boingo (1992) more music like this by Oingo Boingo A gothic, experimental band that utilized a simple blend of R&B and new wave, Oingo Boingo was quite an innovative force in the eight or so years covered on Best O' Boingo. Few bands can claim such a unique spot in the annals of pop music, but thanks to the visionary songs from lead singer Danny Elfman, Oingo Boingo often transcended the ... see all copies from $5.99! new only from $37.23!
8	Best of Oingo Boingo: Skeletons in the Closet (1989) more music like this by Oingo Boingo Even for a career spanning over a decade, three Oingo Boingo greatest-hits albums seem a little far-fetched. Each one contains a good sample of some of their best songs, ranging from early new wave days to pop and rock, all in their twisted tongue-in-cheek style. The reasoning behind the triple deal is that their earlier albums were distributed by ... see all copies from $2.58! new only from $8.66!
9	Good for Your Soul (1983) more music like this by Oingo Boingo Not as highly regarded as Only a Lad or Dead Man's Party, Good for Your Soul may have been underrated in the Boingo canon. While there are moments where Elfman and company are straining a little ("Wake Up (It's 1984)"), there are other moments where the band is in full flight and at the top of their form -- "What Do You Want to Be?" gets the album ... see all copies from $8.71!
10	I Want My 80's Box (2001) more music like this by Various Artists Released more or less in conjunction with MTV's 20th anniversary in 2001, this triple gatefold sleeve set ( not a box as the title implies), with an appropriately gaudy 27-page book, delivers 42 typical examples of songs associated with the music channel in its fledgling years. With 35 Top Ten tracks, ten of which topped the charts, there's no ... see all copies from $31.88! new only from $31.88!
11	Boingo Alive (1988) more music like this by Oingo Boingo Not quite a greatest-hits album and not quite a live album, Oingo Boingo celebrates not quite a decade of existence with the peculiar double album Boingo Alive. Elfman and bandmates re-record two dozen tracks from Boingo's prodigious canon in no particular order, and sweeten the deal by tossing in a few freshly penned numbers. The thrust of the ... see all copies from $13.00! new only from $17.79!
12 view cover	On the Charts: I.R.S. Records 1979-1994 (1994) more music like this by Various Artists IRS Records was one of the giants of the post-punk era. They cultivated a roster filled with groundbreaking underground rockers, from the English Beat to R.E.M. Like most great labels, they stayed around a little too long, so their message was diluted toward the end of their life, but in their prime, they were a diverse, exceptional label. Since ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
13 view cover	Anthology (1999) more music like this by Oingo Boingo Oingo Boingo's two-disc Anthology collects some of the finest examples of their eclectic sound, including "Weird Science" and the Halloween anthem "Dead Man's Party." Tracks like "Only a Lad," "Grey Matter," and "Cinderella Undercover" define their cerebral-yet-catchy style, and live versions of "Tender Lumpkins," "Whole Day Off," and "Insects" ... see all copies from $27.16! new only from $27.16!
14 view cover	18 New Wave Classics, Vol. 2 (1997) more music like this by Various Artists Much like the first volume of the series, 18 New Wave Classics, Vol. 2 doesn't offer a wholly appropriate selection of new wave singles; it takes a few too many liberties with the style's end (around 1984), but it does still contain a mostly enjoyable selection of '80s material. Non-new wave from the Smiths ("Girlfriend in a Coma"), Erasure ( ... see all copies from $2.19!
15 view cover	VH1: The Big 80's The Big Movies (1998) more music like this by Various Artists Rhino has had enormous success with its VH1-sponsored collections, whether it was 8-Track Flashback or The Big '80s. Usually, series lose steam as more editions are released, but VH1 The Big '80s: The Big Movies is the exception that proves the rule. Its success may be due to the fact that it has a specific theme -- it collects hit songs and ... see all copies from $5.48! new only from $32.86!
16 view cover	Farewell: Live from the Universal Amphitheatre (1996) more music like this by Oingo Boingo The final performance of Oingo Boingo was captured on Farewell: Live from the Universal Ampitheatre on Halloween 1995. A two-volume VHS recording accompanies the two-CD set. Oingo Boingo agent provocateur Danny Elfman is an adroit, singular, and quirky songwriter. For sheer entertainment, the Oingo Boingo repertoire earns high marks. This CD and ... see all copies from $13.00!
17 view cover	Out of Bounds: Journey Through Modern Rock (1999) more music like this by Various Artists Out of Bounds: Journey Through Modern Rock is aptly titled, though a bit too scatterbrained to be truly representative of the genre. While key tracks from the likes of Belly ("Gepetto"), the Smiths ("Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now"), and the B-52's ("Party Out of Bounds") are indeed highlights from the college rock era, obscure cuts from the Red ... see all copies from $2.00!
18 view cover	Rock of the 80's, Vol. 3 [Cema] (1992) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $1.99! new only from $3.18!
19 view cover	20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of Oingo Boingo (2002) more music like this by Oingo Boingo 20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of Oingo Boingo gathers 11 of Danny Elfman's quirky new wave group's definitive tracks, including "Weird Science," "Dead Man's Party," "Wild Sex (In the Working Class)," and "Just Another Day." The band's busy, bouncy sound is also exemplified by "Grey Matter," "Only a Lad," and "Just ... see all copies from $7.74! new only from $8.66!

21 view cover	These People Are Nuts (1989) more music like this by Various Artists This is a fine overview of the greatest hits of I.R.S. Records. Dan Heilman, All Music Guide see all copies from $19.99! new only from $21.50!
22 view cover	Soundtrack Smashes: The 80's (1989) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $1.99!
23 view cover	Urgh! A Music War (1981) more music like this by Various Artists Most of this documentary soundtrack is the antithesis of bloated 1970s arena rock. The record is subtitled "A Music War." But the British bands that dominate the album were battling the social and economic woes of the U.K. as much as rebelling against the commerciality and smugness in popular rock music emanating from the States. The lineup ... see all copies from $59.95!
24 view cover	Oingo Boingo (1980) more music like this by Oingo Boingo see all copies from $20.00!
25 view cover	Rock of the 80's, Vol. 6 [Priority] (1993) more music like this by Various Artists Priority's Rock of the '80s series may only contain nine songs on each disc, but every volume is filled with first-rate new wave and mainstream pop songs that justify the budget price. Vol. 6, for example, contains such hits as Men at Work's "Overkill," Thompson Twins' "Lay Your Hands on Me," Naked Eyes' "Promises Promises," Adam Ant's "Desperate ... see all copies from $6.98!
