Oingo Boingo Dead man’s party is a pretty great album. At least a Hex C 12/15
This then led me to listen to the entire discography. They are pretty enjoyable new wave group. They are sort of a synthesis of Talking Heads, XTC and The Cure (in the beginning Danny Elfman sounds like David Byrne, toward the end he sounds like Robert Smith). Their first 4 albums and the last one are my recommended albums. Great grooves, interesting arrangement and catchy melodies. They are a 2 star artist (melodies can be repetitive and the song overlong for me to rate it higher)l
I’m surprised that John Mc hasn’t put them in the itinerary
I mean they are the rock group with the closest connection to The Simpsons. Surely your website is incomplete without a review of them and a Simpsons reference at the top of the pate. I can even identify a few motif that seemed to be used in the Simpson themes during my discography listen
