And neither does this, for me at least

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

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.
