Bless, 1982 dawned and in California a group of lads woke up and decided to do some 'Punk'.

They picked up some vinyl from a garage sale as a source of inspiration and some guitars and drums at the local Music store.

And so a Legend started.....

Really good and chill.....

I would like to mention Angelo Badalamenti though?

Still, very good.

A bit nothingy really. I'd not heard of this before and it's already dated.

It's less an album of music and more a gimmick or platform for another media.

I've seen this around for a while but this is the first time I've seriously listened to it.

This is a great choice in my opinion as there's not much like it and it defies the norm and I think that's why so many hate it.

I really liked this - it's odd and impenetrable in places. Intruiging and disturbing.

The album cover is a real clash of modern and natural which I guess is the intention.

This is why I persist with this Album list.

So much emphasis on the fact it's not in English......

This is pretty pleasant but run of the mill stuff in my view.

Ahhh, good call.

The seeds are all here for the other bands to come.

I never got into these guys but would have liked to.

It was enjouable easy lisstening- sounded more from the 80s than 90s.

I liked this- it's quite old now but seems fresh and has more to offer than just electonic sound.

This is something I'll listen to again.

Very odd collection of songs from a seminal band.

Seems to me it would belong in the 80s more but listening back now it's pleasant and interesting to see what people listened to back then.

This didn't hit me in the right way- a bit too American and samey after a few tracks.

I've not come across these guys before and although formulaic the songs hit me this morning in a good way.

There's some interesting sounds here.

There's nothing wrong with this, or Tom come to that but he's never managed to reach out to me.

Technically proficient with skill.

Ah! Another loud shouty band from America. Great!

I guess it's a big place so you need a lot of identical bands to spring up like grocery stores to serve a certain demographic.

Dull, generic and predictable.

It's quite interesting and goofy in places. I've not heard of this genre 'filk' before but it takes all sorts I guess.

I used to 'do' Comic and Sci-Fi conventions as a kid but never came across any dedicated bands........shame.

I'm constantly amazed by bands I've never heard of on Spotify with 400 million listens.

There's a lot of money been spent on orchestral accompaniment, glossy videos and special effects.

It's not bad but very fomulaic.

And yes, it does sound like a sci-fi film soundtrack.

It's not bad but she really sounds like a cross between Suzanne Vega and a certain Alanis.

Quite varied and experimental though. Kept me guessing.

Quite refreshing contrast to hear something from the 60's.

These guys were pretty good- varied and not too generic. They certainly had stiff opposition at the time but held their own.

Very interesting insight into a totally different genre.

It's difficult for me to judge but it's pretty full-on foot down on the pedal. I felt tired after listening to this for a while.

Musically accomplished and her voice is awesome.

Two days ago I was trying to remember this band and had to resort to Googling "Scouser band she's a Ten".

I then went on a random journey in Spotify of their hits and then here we are today with this album which surely is their most famous offering?

It amazes me it wasn't already on the 1001 list but then there are a lot of albums been missed.

Doesn't have a great score indicating most of the punters on this site were born after 2000. As a result it's a Perfect 10 from me!

It's not bad, only i'm tired of bulk standard Indie Rock.

There's nothing original I can hear.
