I've been sharpening a knife in the bathroom
On a brick I got from the garden
No one will fuck with me again

Listened to this again today for the millionth time and well, it's just fucking astonishing isn't it? #5albums83

🖤 Those insistent drums and distinctive vocals... Southern Death Cult is another very strong contender for me #5albums83 🖤

#5albums83 perhaps unsurprisingly, this one's proving really hard to rank. And to choose who misses out. Bauhaus and Xmal Deutschland will be on my list, so I suppose I must somehow pick 3 from these 4...

Not sure if live albums can be included in #5albums83 but I'm having a nice start to my Friday listening to 👇👇👇

Those disgusting vegan new punks

EYELESS IN GAZA

When I think of 1983, I'm initially drawn to early synth bands and new romantics, but within the mix was this rather lovely duo who, amazingly, are still making music together and have produced over twenty albums since 1980.

#5albums83
R.E.M. - Murmur (1983)

#nowspinning this garage rock jangle pop masterpiece. Early REM is best REM, right? youtu.be/PNi7Kt0iOH4

Now playing: Perverted By Language. #fallfriday #5albums83

Walked past the modest turning in Eastbourne this morning where one of the greatest LPs of the 80s was recorded.

Just seen Richard Shaw commencing the #5albums83
This could take some time but surely anything with “Genetic Engineering” must be included Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark PunkAndNewWave Memorial Device ROPoem
Don’t think the Geordies in The Tube were ready for this?

#5Albums83
OMD

The most underrated band of their time? Or maybe that's just me bein slow on the uptake...

#NowPlaying #5albums83 #Liverpool
ECHO & THE BUNNYMEN

'The Cutter' was the first track I heard by the Bunnys - and 'Never Stop' went one better (not on the album, but thankfully added to later extended versions). The sleeve art is iconic.

#5albums83 #NowPlaying
The Chameleons - Script of the Bridge
Ridiculously underrated band and album, this will be in my 5

#5albums83
1, Cocteau Twins - Head Over Heels
2, Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark - Dazzle Ships
3, Rain Parade - Emergency Third Rail Power Trip
4, Talking Heads - Speaking In Tongues
5, Tom Waits - Swordfishtrombones

Thanks Richard Shaw !

#5albums83 One of the joys of doing these polls is rediscovering stuff I haven’t heard in ages, embarrassed to say I probably haven’t played this since the ‘80’s! Superb album that sounds a bit like a heavier Bunnymen/Teardrop Explodes. Serious contender!
