Jam out to 80's music! Post some music and let's talk about it.

Rules

  1. All aspects of the LW TOS apply.
  2. Be constructive and don't gatekeep. People have different tastes in music; deal with it.
  3. If the source is YouTube, use the actual YouTube URL and not some random Invidious/Piped link. This prevents dead links as those go on/offline or break due to Google changes while also letting people's browser plugins, Lemmy clients, etc automatically re-write those to their preferred instances. Feel free to put alternate links in the post body, though.
  4. Submissions must be from the 80s (1980 - 1989) based on either recorded or release date. e.g. if it was recorded in 1989 but released in 1990, we're not going to split hairs over that; post away. Covers made in the 80s of older music is absolutely allowed and encouraged.

Posting Guidelines / Suggestions

  1. The preferred title format is Artist - Song Name [YEAR]
  2. If a song has a particular meaning or evokes a pleasant memory for you, feel free to share your story with it.

If you have other suggestions that would help grow the community and/or foster discussion, please feel free to share.

I rather find that Iron Maiden is probably one of the more consistent bands with its output, actually. You either like them or you don't, and that's a good thing by itself because it shows that, regardless of musical taste, they know their trade. Its not an easy thing to be consistent.

With Black Sabbath, I have a lot more problems because they have entire albums which are, for me, quite terrible from a song writing perspective. I don't mean a couple of songs, I mean from start to finish. If I pick one record I haven't listened to yet, I just have no idea if I'm going to like it or not.

With Quiet Riot I agree. They have records which honestly kind of suck.
