Miscellaneous Debris

Miscellaneous Debris (1992) more music like this

by Primus

What makes this 5-song EP of covers Primus's best release is the material. For once, Les Claypool's crew plays actual songs instead of sketching out a few ideas as an excuse for jamming. As a result, Miscellaneous Debris isn't as weird and alienating as previous albums, and often their reinterpretations -- from the clever ribbing of XTC's "Making ...

Compact XTC: The Singles 1978-1985

Compact XTC: The Singles 1978-1985 (1987) more music like this

by XTC

An expanded version of 1983's excellent singles compilation Waxworks, Compact XTC: The Singles 1978-1985 is simply that: all of the group's singles from 1978's White Music to 1985's The Big Express, in chronological order and including the misbegotten attempt at writing a proper hit single, 1980's "Wait Till Your Boat Goes Down," which wisely ...

Drums and Wires

Drums and Wires (1979) more music like this

by XTC

Following Go 2, keyboardist Barry Andrews left XTC and, rather than finding a replacement keyboard player, the band opted to recruit another guitarist (who could also play keyboards), Dave Gregory. The album that followed the lineup change, Drums and Wires, marks a turning point for the band, with a more subdued set of songs that reflect an ...

Upsy Daisy Assortment

Upsy Daisy Assortment (1997) more music like this

by XTC

Instead of releasing the complete double-disc set Fossil Fuel: The XTC Singles 1977-92, the American division of Geffen decided to assemble Upsy Daisy Assortment, a 19-track budget-priced collection that follows XTC from 1979's Drums & Wires to 1992's Nonsuch. Such a decision was conceivably driven by the idea that casual fans and the curious will ...

Fossil Fuel: The XTC Singles 1977-1992

Fossil Fuel: The XTC Singles 1977-1992 (1996) more music like this

by XTC

Fossil Fuel: The XTC Singles 1977-1992 is a splendid double-disc set that runs through every one of the group's 31 A-sides, from the nervy "Science Friction" to the lush, sighing "Wrapped in Grey." Between those two songs, XTC's craftsmanship grows remarkably fast -- based on the edgy pop of their new wave singles "Statue of Liberty," "This Is Pop ...

Just Can't Get Enough: New Wave Hits of the 80's, Vol. 3

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

by Various Artists

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 ...

First Generation: Virgin 25 Years

First Generation: Virgin 25 Years (1998) more music like this

by Various Artists

Most people think of Virgin Records as the multinational recording conglomerate that has proven to be one of the giants of the industry in the 1990s. Indeed, that is true. However, like a lot of big dinosaurs, they got their start as one of the most feisty independents of their time. Virgin XXV Years collects a lot of label material that reflects ...

A Testimonial Dinner: The Songs of XTC

A Testimonial Dinner: The Songs of XTC (1995) more music like this

by Various Artists

Though most tribute albums aren't worth the cost of the packaging, A Testimonial Dinner deserves a listen simply because the artists involved appear to have been selected more for their love of XTC than for their MTV appeal. Spacehog's take on "Senses Working Overtime" captures the perky but warped pop sensibilities perfectly, while Sarah ...

Waxworks: Some Singles 1977-1982

Waxworks: Some Singles 1977-1982 (1982) more music like this

by XTC

Though it has been since supplanted by more comprehensive XTC collections -- the most notable being Fossil Fuel, which repeats all of the Waxworks tracks plus the later singles -- Waxworks: Some Singles 1977-1982 remains the classic compilation of the band's first, pre-studio-bound period. Originally, the album was packaged with a second record, ...

Richard Blade's Flashback Favorites, Vol. 3

Richard Blade's Flashback Favorites, Vol. 3 (1994) more music like this

by Various Artists

Each volume of Richard Blade's Flashback Favorites collects rare dance mixes and 12-inch versions of songs from familiar new wave and post-punk bands. This is specialist material, but for collectors seeking these mixes, these CD collections are an excellent choice. Vol. 3 contains 12 songs, including Wire Train's "Chamber of Hellos," the Bongos' ...

Breakfast Club: Milan

Breakfast Club: Milan (2006) more music like this

by Various Artists

While it would be nearly impossible to find out if every song on Breakfast Club: Milan was actually played in cafés and nightclubs around the city like the label insists, anyone who's ever spent time in the fashion capital of the world knows that at least they're not far off the mark. A collection of music for somewhere between late night and ...

Pure: 70s [EMI] (2007) more music like this

by Various Artists

Pure: 70s is a better-than-average three-disc set, highlighting 57 pop singles released in that decade. Along with the original versions of tried-and-true radio classics by KC & the Sunshine Band, Electric Light Orchestra, Pilot, the Knack, and Don McLean are less-than-obvious inclusions by punk/new wave groups Generation X, Buzzcocks, Blondie, ...

Nouvelle Vague [14 Tracks] (2004) more music like this

by Nouvelle Vague

The best compliment that can be paid to Nouvelle Vague's self-titled debut album: it isn't as arch and smirking as a collection of bossa nova versions of new wave classics by fetching French and Brazilian chanteuses would suggest. Based on the concept alone, Nouvelle Vague seems similar to the work of jokesters like the Mike Flowers Pops or ...
