Then: Totally Oldies '80s, Vol. 5

Then: Totally Oldies '80s, Vol. 5 (2003) more music like this

by Various Artists

Then: Totally Oldies '80s is an 18-track collection that rounds up some totally '80s songs. There seems to be no rhyme or reason to the track selection; it seems as if the compilers just closed their eyes and picked songs that were hits or close to it at random. A selection process like that is bound to turn up some winners; here listeners have ...

by Various Artists

Millennium: '80s New Wave Party, the final installment in Rhino's five-disc series Millennium Party, basically recycles 20 hits available in the label's extensive new wave series Just Can't Get Enough, but it does so in style.

VH1: The Big 80's

VH1: The Big 80's (1996) more music like this

by Various Artists

Halfway through the '90s, the programmers of VH1 realized there was a whole audience that hungered for the great videos of the '80s -- not only new wave refugees, but a generation of younger fans to whom the sounds of the early '80s were as classic as the British Invasion. So VH1 invented The Big '80s, a show that specialized in '80s videos. Once ...

Moog [Soundtrack] (2004) more music like this

by Original Soundtrack

Hans Fjellestad's documentary Moog and its soundtrack explore the connection between, and the lasting influence of, eccentric electronic genius Robert Moog -- his name is practically onomatopoetic -- and his quintessential analog synthesizer. Moog's two discs include the actual soundtrack, which features new tracks by contemporary artists, and ...

Best of Fear Factory (2006) more music like this

by Fear Factory

The Best of Fear Factory, released alongside several other Roadrunner Records retrospectives in 2006, focuses on the industrial metal band's recordings with guitarist Dino Cazares, a founding member and songwriter who left the band after Digimortal (2001). The refined focus helps strengthen the overall quality of this compilation, since it centers ...

Like, Omigod! The '80s Pop Culture Box (Totally) (2002) more music like this

by Various Artists

Rock criticism has two schools of thought regarding the '80s. One complains that it was all crass, commercial crap, breathing a sigh of relief that we made it through that dreck (thanks to IRS, SST, jangle pop, college rock, and hardcore punk, of course). The other celebrates the album as "cheesy" fun, full of naïve, silly singles; bad haircuts; ...

MTV the First 1000 Years: New Wave (1999) more music like this

by Various Artists

It may be hard to get beyond the title of Rhino's series MTV the First 1000 Years, which just may be the dumbest title in the first 1000 years of the recording industry, but the actual discs aren't bad at all. For instance, the New Wave volume is a solid collection of 15 hits, all that received a considerable boost from the music television ...

The Pleasure Principle [Bonus Tracks]

The Pleasure Principle [Bonus Tracks] (1998) more music like this

by Gary Numan

The most popular of all the Gary Numan albums is undeniably 1979's The Pleasure Principle. The reasons are simple -- there is not a single weak moment on the disc, it contains his sole U.S. (number one worldwide) hit, "Cars," and new drummer Cedric Sharpley adds a whole new dimension with his powerful percussion work. The Pleasure Principle is ...

Hard Rock Cafe: New Wave

Hard Rock Cafe: New Wave (1997) more music like this

by Various Artists

The Hard Rock Cafe, the world's largest rock & roll theme restraunt chain, entered a partnership with Rhino Records in 1997, presumably to release various-artists compilation like Classic Rock and its companion New Wave. Each collection captures a specific era -- namely, the '70s and '80s -- by rounding up 16 radio hits. While neither offers any ...

Best 80s Modern Rock Album (2002) more music like this

by Various Artists

This installment of EMI's Best...Ever series focuses on the 1980s and what it calls the "modern rock" of that era. And though the company's licensing power ensures a solid set with very few whammies, it's title is a little problematic. After all, "modern rock" as a descriptor only has only been around since sometime in the mid-'90s, when radio ...

Ultra '80s Vs. Electro, Vol. 1 (2002) more music like this

by Various Artists

The title of this nth installment in Ultra's series of timely double-disc mixes is a dicey one, because pitting the '80s against electro is similar to pitting the '70s against funk. The '80s in this case includes Grandmaster Flash, Kraftwerk, Tears for Fears (!), M/A/R/R/S, Laidback, and Gary Numan (an inferior mix of -- you guessed it -- "Cars"). ...

Chart Toppers: Rock Hits of the 80s (1998) more music like this

Priority's Chart Toppers series is an excellent budget-line collection, offering a strong selection of 15 original hits, grouped by a specific theme and decade, on each disc. Chart Toppers: Rock Hits of the 80s combines new wave, ska revival, album rock, power pop, prog rock, and pop/rock hits -- an eclectic bunch, to say the least, but the ...

Just Can't Get Enough: New Wave Hits of the 80's, Vol. 3 (1994) more music like this

One of the very best volumes in a generally superb series, the third volume of Just Can't Get Enough: New Wave Hits of the 80's ups the ante in every respect. The crossover hits are bigger, the cult hits better, the novelties weirder and funnier. Best of all, it remembers that new wave wasn't confined to new bands; it also includes semi-veterans ...

Rhino Records' budget imprint Flashback has released an impressive amount of inexpensive greatest hits and compilation CDs. One of the best ones is 1997's Essential New Wave Hits. Not all ten songs (from between 1979 and 1983) are exactly new wave, but what's included is notable. The highlight of this CD is the inclusion of the original number-one ...

The second volume of Polymedia's 80's New Wave series focuses on more singles from the new wave era, most of which feature the use of synthesizers and/or drum programming. Many of the songs -- including Gary Numan's "Cars," Soft Cell's "Tainted Love," Kraftwerk's "The Model," Thomas Dolby's "She Blinded Me With Science," and Yello's "Oh Yeah" -- ...

Living Ornaments '79 (1981) more music like this

by Gary Numan

One of the downsides of the new romantic movement is that its groups tended to be more exciting in a video or in the studio than they were in the live arena. One of the rare exceptions to this rule was Gary Numan, a performer whose canny blend of synthesizer textures and conventional rock band instrumentation allowed his music to translate itself ...

Most of these songs would have never been played on the radio if MTV had not been around to promote these artists who had little staying power. However, if you love early-'80s music, this collection is just right for you. Kajagoogoo's "Too Shy," Missing Persons' "Destination Unknown" and "I Ran (So Far Away)" by A Flock of Seagulls are still great ...
