or i could look to the future instead. nah, not to sound like a dick, it's just that everything from the 80's has that distinct sound to it and it really gets on my nerves. of course there are certain things i do listen to from the 80's (i exagerate most of the time), but over all, i really think it sucked. the fashion, the movies (well, not all of em), politics and especially the music. that 80's hair band metal crap is the worst of all... and i understand ya'll are talking about the GOOD music from the 80's... but there was far more crap then there was good stuff, and i was born in 80 so i wasn't really into music at that point. i dont' understand how grown men in girls makeup wearing tights and singing all falsetto like w/ cock rock guitar solos was ever even considered metal. when i think of metal, i think EVIL! loud, crushing, fast (could be slow too though), disgusting music. and i dont' even really like metal, but i know for damn sure that shit in the 80's should not be considered metal. my roomate in san diego years ago dragged me to a Meshuggah show... now that, in my book, is fucking metal. i know ya'll aren't talking about that stuff, but when i think of the 80's, that's what comes to mind. and i don't even really know what to consider new wave to be honest, so i couldn't comment on that, unless you tell me who's considered new wave and what was considered just plain 80's crappy pop music... like EMF, ughhhh.
