But I mentioned quite some other names.
I personally think the 80's were an awful time, musically speaking.
I once tried to make a list of 25 bands from the 80's that are really good.
I don't have to like them, I just want to be able to say: Taste aside, that's quality music.

I couldn't do it...
1) The Pixies
2) The Smiths
3) Dinosaur JR
4) Sonic Youth
5) Jesus & Mary Chain
6) Joy Division
7) Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds
8) The Wedding Present
9) R.E.M
10) The Stone Roses
11) The Cure
12) The Fall
13) The Feelies
14) The Flaming Lips
15) The Jam
16) Violent Femmes
17) Dead Kennedys
18) The Replacements
19) Hüsker Dü
20) XTC
21) Meat Puppets
22) X
23) Echo & The Bunnymen
24) Galaxie 500
25) The Cramps

I could go on...
The 80s were great.
