B-52's
 

oh fuck yah...

:bananamac:banoonoo:

I've only ever heard Rock Lobster and Love Shack.

Do these guys have any other great songs worth checking out?

thread reminds me to check that mid-2000s-ish album they put out as a direct response to how good Get Ready by New Order was

surely that one's got at least a coupla bangerz

i think it's their post punk album

every b-52s album is post-punk, man

Since Elph likes post-punk so much he should check out post-grunge. I'm sure he'd love Nickelback and Creed

that doesn't make sense.gif

First two albums are amazing

do you remember the song "glove slap" from the simpsons?

I love B-52's

Love Shack is the shittttt

I challenge you to a duel!:rofl:

This is prolly my fav. but they've got a sneaky back catalog from their early days that is eye opening.


I got a best hits CD from them recently and forgot how much they rocked. It's always good to know you don't have to play through a Diesel at 120dbs and have a cliche'd angry singer to get the desired effect:

Those yellow pants. So great

:banoonoo: :jump: :banoonoo:

Gotta say I like you, anonymous board conspiracy dude, a lot more now that I know you're a B-52's guy

Like if I had to be completely honest, I think Love Shack is in my top 5 favorite songs

How bout the blue's on the guitarist? And the leet move taking out the middle strings on his guitar. Very alternative in a time the term wasn't even used back then for stuff like that.

that's funneh...I'd peg your fav would be this one:






funniest vid from the funniest and funnest band evarrr...

The first B-52's album is the shit. Never ever gets old.

:rockon:

So great

Roam is pretty bad ass. Try to not let this tune squat in your head for hours on end.

this thread is GAAAAAAAY


(I love it)

a guilty pleasure hidden gem of the 80's...and what's not to love for a song about Counterfeiting.

I used to say "Chinese Noodles" over and over in my head trying to get it just the way she said it...honestly that is some kind of English perfection there, the way she says that. It sort of epitomises everything that is beautiful about the English language to me, somehow.

I meant to quote this!!

But now I have heard strobe light I am kinda awestruck

uuuuuuugggh it still gives me the shivers....chahhh-neeeez nuuuu-dls

:netphoria

World's gone loco. There's a deep state civil war going on that's about to go hot in the streets. It's time for the B-52's:
