I regard Bowie's albums from the Berlin era Low and Heroes as sort of New Wave and probably Lodger.

Favourite song: Sound and Vision.

I put this here.

If this doesn't make you want to dance, you're dead.

As one of the commenters said "what is sexier than a beautiful woman dancing barefoot?"

A little more.

And a little later, a bit more mellow.

This is what happens when you take the rhythm section (bass and drums) from Talking Heads and let them do their own thing.

^ B-52! Awesome. And I don't have bad words for anything Talking Heads related.

I know this is controversial, but I'd say these fellows are the most underrated band (or at least up there):

THE SOUND

fast & loud

slow & sweet

a good album

Future Islands - Seasons (Waiting On You)

Great band. And the singer is serious about it.

I was browsing my cds/lps before, looking for something to keep my ears happy while cleaning the house.

I stumbled into this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8iGvfWus-y4

Well, the whole record where that title track comes from.

Probably my favourite Bauhaus', or at least the one I hold dear in my heart. It's been way too long since the last time I put this album on.

Now, I'm sure, days of new wave will happily follow.

Predictably, Virgin Prunes followed Bauhaus and now The Fall. Mark E Smith will always be remembered.

RVG from Australia reminds me of these sounds a lot.
