Sister of Mercy
The Black Heart of Gothic Rock

The Cure
Just LISTEN to those old albums... Pure Classic Modern Rock.

Oingo Boingo
They are The Grateful Dead of Alternative. Danny Elfman is God

Simple Minds
If 80's Modern Rock had a brain it would be Simple. Is that good?

New Order
From the ashes of Joy Division something pretty damn cool arises...

Sisters of Mercy - First and Last and Always
The planet was definitely Black. So were my clothes.

The Cure - Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me
Such a deep album, it stands up to The Greats.

Oingo Boingo - Dead Man's Party
Just Another Day, Dead Man's Party, No One Lives Forever, and Wierd Science for good measure.

Simple Minds - Once Upon a Time
Give it a listen, you know, they didn't even write "Don't You Forget About Me"!

New Order - Substance 1987
If you want the epitome of the 80's give this compilation a few listens.

darksynth
The rarest 80's synthpop in the known universe.

nbaty
The Gnat is where Alternative is NOW.
