- The Associaton was better than any of the chosen artists beginning with A. If there is one album which defines what the new wave was all about it must be Associations Sulk from 1982. Just check from youtube their top of the pops performances of songs Party fears two and Country club.

- I love 80's music. But where are Shriekback and Gary Numan?
Also, Vh1 recently called Devo, XTC, and Numan one-hit wonders. Who else disagrees?
