Their first 3 albums are good shit

i have one of their tshirts and every day i wear it i get complimented
one time i got a free coffee from it :)

i would also place dead man's party in their essentials along with the first three if only for the singles
far above the rest of the acts lumped in with the shit heap that is "new wave"
Boingo Alive is good even if it's overproduced as fuck
XTC rip off
>>73109213
how can it be a ripoff if it's good and xtc is flaming garbage?
>>73109133
dead mans party and debut are their best desu
Am I missing anything?
>>73109133
only a lad and dead man's party are :!

I've got a print of the cover of Only A Lad on a canvas tote bag, no compliments yet
Damn I love Oingo Boingo, I think I'm one of the few people that enjoys all of their albums. Even So-Lo, Sucker for Mystery is brilliant.
They changed their style a lot over the years but I still believe they made albums no other band could have made. Except maybe the last one, but it was still pretty good, especially lyrically
Only a Lad, Good for Your Soul and Dead Manys Party are great
Their last 2 albums have some ok stuff but are mostly bad and Nothing to Fear i cant make up my mind on. I found So-Lo mostly mediocre too.
I feel bad because while I love the band I find Only A Lad the one I return to the least. I just don't find it as interesting musically as the others for whatever reason.
