The Cult. Good choice. Man, I remember when they used to play them on a regular. Out here, we had KAZY on 106.7 and right next door, we had KBPI on 105.9... Most people forgot about KAZY, but I still think the most famous metal station around was our AM selection~ Z Rock. They would play anything on that station from new Metallica (...And Justice For All at the time) to D.R.I., Suicidal Tendencies, S.O.D., Anthrax, you name it. They'd put anything on request for you. I always called in to hear tunes, because I didn't have much money back then for tapes.
I'm not terribly into a lot of the 80's pop rock, but some of it can't be denied, regardless of popularity.
I'll admit to guilty pleasures. I like some Dokken tunes, a few White Lion, there are a reasonable amount of great songs that the genre grew, so I can't knock it.
It's sort of like Glenn Danzig. Better with the Misfits and Samhain, but I will admit that his later, self produced stuff is catchy. I'm a sucker for a hook. I think that's why I love Kid Cudi so much.
IMO, it doesn't matter where the music comes from, or what era, if it's worth a spin, I'll pick it up.
The Cars + Phoebe Cates in slo-mo... Hahahaha... That's too much. Ultra cheesy n' awesome. It's like straight out of someone's crush imagination. You always find my funny bone, Keith. People would tell Amy that she looked a bit like her. I think I can sort of see it, now.
