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.

'Doctor! Doctor!' by Thompson Twins

Album: Into the Gap

Released: 1986
Theme: quintessential 80's

This song is the 1st track off their 4th studio album and possess all the Thompson Twin power.

Was making dinner one night and the song came to me; pregnant with the idea of posting.

'In The Name of Love' by Thompson Twins

Album: Set
Released: 1982
Theme: quintessential 80's

This one seems to be a secluded song from their 2nd studio album.

You may not readily recognize it, but there's a familiar undercurrent. I wish I was at the show - I am at the show - I am the show.
