The video is nice as well, with the cathedral and all the
showroom dummies and all...

The Art Of Noise is a pretty significant 80's band as
well....

Def Leppard - Hysteria was a truly outstanding album…still
love it…great work!

and I choose Metallica, too… i’m more into And Justice
For All than other albums – the sound is awesome…it was
the first drum’n’bass thing in heavy metal ;)

influence on industrial bands that were coming up…nice
programming

my favorite stuff to come out in the 80s is....skinny puppy
i guess, though i like their stuff released in the 90s
better generally, nine inch nails (i guess i was four when
pretty hate machine came out, oh well), the cocteau twins,
depeche mode had some of their best releases then...and
though i didn't really like ministry for a while, i have to
admit...twitch was a pretty bad ass release.
