Love this song from Kurt Neumann/The Bodeans. Maybe the best band to ever come out of Wisconsin [@scooter

Truth be told, I was never a fan. They never really fit my musical tastes. It likely didn't help, they followed on the heels of another influential group from that era, that happened to be more to my liking. The Violent Femmes will get my vote on this subject.](https://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=11824)

It just doesn’t get old

And neither does this, for me at least

I always like the BoDeans; never liked the Violent Femmes, though. Blister In The Sun rivals Love Shack by the B-52s for title of the most irritating song of the 80s/90s.

My opinion was totally subjective, of course. I can understand being annoyed by Blister In The Sun. It's not for everyone. I can definitely understand being annoyed by Love Shack, because I am. But, if we're going to pick the most irritating song of that era, I beg to differ. The Proclaimers, I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles) takes the cake.

But to circle back The B-52s,annoying or not,weren’t from Wisconsin,as were The Violent Femmes,and The Bodeans. I know nothing about The Violent Femmes.

If you have a casual liking for Hip Hop and think Eminem is 'tha bomb', check the legend that is RA The Rugged Man's new lp. This track is just a taste. His fast rap is INSANE. he's been on the scene since 89 and is an heralded legend

I suspect Violent Femmes had a different cultural caché in the UK in 1989/90 compared to the USA. You were indie AF if you had their first album (which I did [emoji41]). The B52’s were cheesy by comparison.
