10cc - The Worst Band In The World
My favorite art rock band (if we can call it that). Wonderful, all the way to the suite Feel the Benefit from Deceptive Bends (an album that already shows their poppification).
 
Depeche Mode - Get the Balance Right
Even though Construction time again possesses the first electro-industrial experiments, it still falls within the synth-pop of the first two albums. This and Everything counts, however, announce my favorite phase, which spans from Some Great Reward to Black Celebration. Shortly after, I find more radio-friendly patterns, and even further on those grunge guitars with tracks like Mercy in you or Rush, which sound more like Alice in Chains than Depeche. AHAH
 
Talk Talk - Candy (1997 Remaster)
They are the classic band that doesn't show you the trendy genre but simply various forms of art united in a sound design. Mark's voice means a lot for a band, but at the same time, the skill of the others involved in the rhythmic arrangements is evident. In short, they are among the synth favorites alongside New Order, Kraftwerk, Buggles, and Depeche during the Everything Counts/Black Celebration phase.
 
Bill Bruford - Gothic 17
His solo works are among the gems of fusion.
 
Residents - Spotted Pinto Bean
Progressive piano (in the style of Opus Avantra of Introspection) + Art rock + Dadaism.
 
Christian Death - The Drowning (feat. R. Williams)
When Music gifted you characters like Rozz Williams.
 
Skinny Puppy - One Time One Place
The best of dark industrial. Seeing a festival with them, Mark Stewart, and Einstürzende would have knocked me out AHAH ⛔
 
Skinny Puppy The CHOKe Live 1987, Remastered
Boom! 🚀
What a trip with their dark cyborg vibes 🤖
Ministry and Nine Inch Nails are pop in comparison AHAH the live shows were amazing!
 
Buggles - Elstree
...and also this one sealed with a brilliant ending by the blond guy Geoff.
 
The Buggles - Clean, Clean
How cool are the synth harmonies by Geoff 🌈
 
Red Lorry Yellow Lorry - Spinning Round (Official Video)
Another big group that was making holes 💣
 
Clan of Xymox - Obsession (1989)
The first two albums are the history of darkwave. This and Evelyn are the last two tracks on the third work, an album that unfortunately already shows a loss of magic and originality.
 
New Order - Ecstacy (2015 Remaster)
Power, adrenaline and agitation.
 
Sisters Of Mercy - Lights
17 seconds of pornography
 
Asia - My Own Time (I'll Do What I Want)
How much magic even on Alpha (except for Midnight sun and Eye to eye which already announce the pomp rock/AOR of Astra)
 
Asia - Without You
Their first 2 albums are the last gems from geniuses like Wetton, Palmer, Downes (even if I'm not crazy about the Buggles) and Howe.
