I dunno, it birthed hardcore and thrash. Granted most of the early stuff sounds garbage*, but what they evolved into is grand, so not a total waste.

*I understand and respect the influence of Minor Threat, but I've never heard a cover of one of their songs that wasn't superior to the original.

What bands normally spin your wheels?

Personally find the 80s is full of quality music from rock, punk, hardcore, pop and beyond.

I listen to far more music from the 80s than I do from the last decade. Will leave the hardcore off as I don't want to upset sock, but here's a few

In the ‘80s what man in his right mind didn’t want to be Sonny Crockett or Ricardo Tubbs?

Dylan, Stones, a lot of the 60’s and 70’s stuff. A lot of the early 90’s like Happy Monday’s, Stone Roses. Oasis, Blue back in the day. Had a great time with Groove Armada, Chemical Brothers, Massive Attack. Love a bit of Opera as well these days.

Like folky type stuff, Rufus Wainwright, Conor Oberst.

I’m not very refined as you might have guessed

Honestly though, if something comes on the radio that I identify as being 80’s it genuinely depresses me and I switch off. Realise this is an extreme reaction and of course the whole decade wasn’t shite - being a little tongue in cheeks
