Killing Joke - Night Time

Killing Joke - Night Time
(1985) Virgin

This is a maybe one of the most classic of all 80's albums - any genre!
8 fantastic songs and at least 3 succesfull singles "Eighties", "Love Like Blood" and "Kings And Queens". They've obtained an incredible sound, with a very dominating bass guitar, on this recording. I only wish more albums sounded like this.

Big Audio Dynamite - This Is Big Audio Dynamite

Big Audio Dynamite -
This Is Big Audio Dynamite
2CD (1985/2010) Sony

I recently rediscovered this favourite album of my teens. Sony released this remastered and updated two disc edition earlier this year. It sounds fantastic! Check out "Medicine Show", "E=MC2" and "The Bottom Line" - they're all classics! This is almost as good as Sigue Sigue Sputnik!

The Sisters Of Mercy - Wake

The Sisters Of Mercy - Wake DVD
(1985/1998) Exclusive Vision

I don't usually like live-DVD's (or live-albums for that matter) but this one's so classic that I have to mention it. I finally got hold of a bootleg DVD copy. I can't for my life figure out why this epic show hasn't been properly released on DVD. It was released on VHS back in 1985 and I loved it ever since! It's a perfect film to have in the background, much better than a fake fireplace or aquarium movie. And the music is almost too good to be true. I love it!
