Everything was s**t in the 80s. Even David Bowie's 80s stuff was mostly terrible.

Obviously everyone sees things different and remembers things different. I have trouble remembering anyway.
But my vague recollections are that the eighties were a game of two halves Brian.
The first half had some good stuff left over from the seventies - post-punk / new wave etc. Then there was electronic or synth pop and I quite liked some of the New Romantic stuff. Then there goth bands (were they called goth then?). There was also Glam Metal - Hanoi Rocks were excellent and who can forget the mighty WRATHCHILD.
Lots of stuff worth seeing and buying - interesting and exciting.
The second half I dont really remember that much new and exciting. I heard the Sisters for the 1st time and fell in love but that doesnt count. The only bands from the latter part of the eighties that I remember being moved by were Sputnik and Transvision Vamp.

The ones I slowly fell out with between 1980 and the end of the eighties:
1. The m*****n
2. The Damned
3. U2
...Remember thinking how can such dynamic bands lose it...

Stereo MCs.
Not exactly a fan of Jesus Jones, either.
