My formative years were spent in the 80's with foundational bands like New Order, Depeche Mode, Echo & the Bunnymen, The Cure, and Jane's Addiction. Even though the 80's was the pioneer decade for the alternative genre, this music transcended into the 90's and to some cool tunes today which could be classified as alternative. Hopefully, this site will bring back some good memories and introduce some things you haven't heard before.

Feedback and suggestions are welcome.

Enjoy.

'Procession' by New Order

Album: Substance
Released: 1987
Theme: quintessential 80's

'Procession' and 'Cries and Whispers' are back to back on Substance Disc 2 which carries a little more mystique than Disc 1. In my opinion, this is one of the best combinations on any album ('Exploding Boy' and 'A Few Hours After This' off The Cures' Standing on a Beach is up there as well).

'Procession' is very cool.
