I started playing the instrumental version of the Dream On in the OP's first post, and ran across this video. Damn if it didn't sync up perfectly... (turn the volume on the video off)

Every other song on KROQ in the 80's. Their Rosebowl/101 concert in '88 was watchable from the sculpture garden at ArtCenter in Pasadena.

Ok, a couple of you like them. But does that first version sound like some good western movie background music? And if they have some good stuff that I missed, what is it? Depeche Mode Violator drops panties faster than tequila. |

This song comes across my Pandora feed, and some girl says that she didn't know I liked Depeche Mode. I said that I didn't know that it was them, but I liked the song. I always thought of it as 80s chick music, but this song was good. Like, western movie good, like some cowboy comes back to his cabin and finds his wife and kids murdered by outlaws, and this music plays while he's ridin' range, chasing down the bad guys, and blowing their guts out with his .44-40. So, here's the song. It's an acoustic remix of the original. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z4Jh0CPKwoE
URL for the embed challenged. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z4Jh0CPKwoE Sounds like some cowboy music, right? So then I check out the original version. Yep chick music. 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7dgrMSTalZ0
Again, for the embed challenged, Earl sends his regards. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7dgrMSTalZ0 So, are they just shitty 80's music? Are they only worth listening to when someone fixes their shit by redoing or remixing it? Is there anything of their original shit worth listening to? A little Euro-trashy music but not consider shitty...their height was late 80s early 90s. They along with the Cure and other bands would be the foundations of alternative music and goth-culture Before it turned into the garbage you see now. Kinda punk but not as hardcore, and in your face as punk. I wouldn't consider it chick music it appealed to more of the alt-punk and new wave crowd, the music is dark, sensual, moody heavily symphonic, more cerebral than the standard 80s pop or hair metal of the time. |

I was just going to say that Depeche Mode always sounded to me like the slightly less gay version of the Pet Shop Boys. I should also say that Pet Shop Boys are the best "gay band" ever if you don't count Queen (only one gay dude IIRC) or Elton John (not a band). |

 Skinny Puppy - Rabies (Full Album) Was more partial to this. I was a hardcore death metal head for a while, but as I mellowed out this was a bit my style. I had a lot of "new waver" friends in high school that liked DM. We all agreed on Ministry and KMFDM being good cross over for what we liked. |

Huh, that's funny...I was also a metalhead and then I discovered industrial when I borrowed my friend's copy of Ministry's "In Case You Didn't Feel Like Showing Up Live" VHS and that blew up into NIN, then Puppy, Neubauten, Throbbing Gristle, the Cabs, Nitzer Ebb, 242 and more |

I saw The Cure in Atlanta in either '91 or '92.
Lots of booze and blow. Me and my buddies kinda stood out (not even remotely goth), but we hooked up with some older chics and went to the underground afterwards. Its all pretty much a blur, so I guess I had a good time. I do remember them sounding good and putting on a great show. |
