A sound the defined a genre and a band that defined all that was great about the 1980's. Never reaching their true potential, the most underrated band not just of the 80's but of All Time. This was their debut album and it is almost perfect. You'll never hear another band that defined the New Wave movement so completely and perfectly as A Flock Of Seagulls. Through their music and lyrics they captured the excitement of a generation emerging from the doldrums of the 70's into a brave new world. Not only does this album contain "I Ran" which is THE anthem song of the 1980's but also many other fantastic songs like "DNA", "Telecommunication", "Modern Love is Automatic" and my personal favorite " Space Age Love Song". It's a MUST HAVE for anyone who likes the New Wave genre a testament to a time of explosive creativity were bands were free to explore new idea's, new sound, and of course new looks... perhaps this album could even be considered a historical document, as I believe it is also an important album in the evolution music...
