    The Blue Nile! Wow this is this stuff that would play on the radio (maybe college radio) in NYC at around 3am Sunday mornings! Made for great decompression while driving home right before the sun starts to rise after hanging out in the city! Great memory trigger! Thanks!

    There was so much crap stuff on mainstream radio in the 1980s, but it was also a great time to listen to the John Peel show. One of my favourite bands he used to play a lot were Xmal Deutschland, their first 2 albums Fetisch and Tocsin are classic post punk at its best. I also started getting into world music in the 80s, such great stuff where UK and US rock had become so dull generally.

    Not sure if underrated but really love the industrial scene of the time too. Nitzer Ebb, Front 242, and Severed Heads lean more dance mixed with killer noise and experimental sounds.

    The guitarist from Mistreater was named Larry Nottingham, he taught me guitar in the late 80s and early 90s when we were under the care of the great state of Ohio. He was into old Delta blues when I met him. Sadly he got caught up with some bad folks near his hometown on Creston, Ohio and he passed away under mysterious circumstances. I'm glad e got a shout out from you, I enjoy your videos!

      @@noblerecords Larry was an amazing guy, he had a great understanding of the feel of playing guitar. I was able to hear him tell stories about this album and listen to him play his acoustic guitar. He loved Sonny Boy Williamson and Robert Johnson. As he got older he morphed into the guitar slinging blues man he always wanted to be. Loved him like a brother.

    The Chameleons - Script of the Bridge (1983) was a hugely influential post-punk record that was greatly overlooked. The whole 2000s post-punk movement seems to have come from them. (Compare Interpol's Turn On The Bright Lights to it) There is even a really good post-punk book that's almost completely thorough, with over 500 pages, but it doesn't mention The Chameleons once.

    Simply Saucer a big fave. Produced in Daniel Lanois' basement. Scratch Acid became Jesus Lizard. Singer is now an actor too. Outskirts O.I. are friends of Bevis Frond aka Nick Saloman, it's on his label. This Mortal Coil is Cocteau Twins. Opal is not with Hope but with the great Kendra Smith who was in the Dream Syndicate. Dave Roback was central in Rain Parade.

    You guys (or anyone with any pull and discrimination... no idea why SST is not on it...) need to reissue the Opal. PLEASE. The lead singer, Kendra Smith, is not only an amazing vocalist and lyricist, but is the original bass player of LA's Dream Syndicate. EVERYTHING she did before she vanished is wonderful and hard to find. The Nico of my generation.

The Wipers first 3 LP are absolute must haves for ANY collector and the rest are dynamite too. Roky , even when he's fried puts out great unique powerful music. Melvins kick ass too. All your picks are solid gems. How about the Obsessed ??

  • @trevordoolan5011
    @trevordoolan5011 Před 2 měsíci +1

    When seeing "20 Underrated 1980's Albums" my first thought was The Blue Nile. Though initially i thought of there debut "A Walk Across The Rooftops", but "Hats" will do just as good. My second thought was Talk Talk "Spirit Of Eden".
    I think UK Goth kinda comes from a different place than the U.S. Goth. In the UK bands like The Cure, The Jesus And Mary Chain, The Sisters Of Mercy, The Mission, All About Eve and even Siouxsie And The Banshees (who are regularly regarded as the pioneers of UK Goth) etc. are considered as Goth. This Mortal Coil do kinda fit into that UK mindset of Goth. This Mortal Coil are a kind of 4AD Record Label project, featuring artists from Cocteau Twins, Dead Can Dance, Modren English and The Pixies, etc., and it does get put into that UK Goth / Dreem Pop sound.
    If there's one Album album I would really like to add to that underrated list, it would be Aslan "Feel No Shame".

      I went to high school in Mechanicsburg near Harrisburg, PA (graduated 1990) & I think The Ocean Blue played a school dance at my high school or junior high school before they got big. Another band that played a school dance near me was Public Affection, which was a New Wave group from York, PA that evolved into Live. Public Affection's only release, a cassette called The Death of a Dictionary, was early R.E.M. style "college rock," but you could still hear how *intense* Ed Kowalczyk was on lead vocals even before Live. Two 1980s bands from Lancaster, PA were The Innocence Mission (from Lancaster Catholic High & had some Catholic imagery in their lyrics) and suddenly tammy!, a group that predated Ben Folds Five in being a rock band centered around (and named after) its piano player.

    cool. Open up a second tab so I can check out what I've not heard. Get the credit card out. Make sure the mrs ain't about. I ordered Mistreater. I heard it years ago but I guess I forgot how amazing it is. Last week I got Tom Rush - "Got a mind to ramble" (yes it does make one want to ramble), Forty seven times it's own weight - "cumolo nimbus" and George Smallwood & Marshmellow band - "Just for you" ( both from Jazzman records) and Grupo Los Yoyi (from Mr Bongo records). Pretty sure they were all Dylan's fault, I mean recommendations lol.

    Interesting video. I was 17 for most of 1980 and was growing very disappointed with what turned out to be, in my opinion, the worst decade for music ever. Part of that was that classic rock bands started to majorly suck and I didn't have exposure to the creative new genres that were emerging. These are certainly some obscure records you're recommending. I remain intrigued by the breadth of knowledge from a guy without a single gray hair or wrinkle. 👍🙃✌️

      Oh my, well I’m bald and have many grey beard hairs 🤣 but thank you. I agree, the 80s weren’t a great decade for music. The 70s were much better. Thanks for watching! 🙏

    Just to chuck out a few suggestions which maybe aren’t as obscure but can be a little overlooked, especially in the U.S.:
    - Nitty Gritty, Turbo Charged
    - Richard and Linda Thompson, Shoot Out the Lights
    - Witchfinder General, Death Penalty
    - ABC, Lexicon of Love.
    Look forward to investigating all your suggestions Dillon!
