Re: DID YOU KNOW THAT ... Men At Work's debut "BAU" Sold MORE Copies, than ALL 3 of Duran Duran's 1st 3 LPs combined!

On May 14 of 1983, Cargo was #4 and Business As Usual was #7 on the Hot 200 album charts. That's impressive, considering Thriller was #1 and Pyromania was #2.

Re: What Was The Deal With Marillion?

All I remember is that Clutching At Straws is one of the most depressing concept albums ever recorded. Wasn't is supposed to be semi-autobiographic?

Re: For the Shotgun Messiah people out there.

I own all three releases and play them fairly regularly. Violent New Breed is underappreciated - imagine NIN's Broken with much better guitars and less depressing lyrics.

Timmy needs to get back to work with Harry Cody already.

Panterrible. It took them until their fifth album to "find their unique look and sound".

Alice in Chains maybe, but they didn't have any formal releases with Diamond Lie or whatever.

Ministry changed pretty quickly, and Uncle Al is performing "Revenge" in concert again.
