I really enjoy Oingo Boingo's unique sound, it's like every song is a different adventure. What does /mu/ think of Oingo Boingo?

I really enjoy Good for Your Soul and the songs on it.

Think Elfman's voice is underappreciated, guy has a very big range with a good amount of power

>>126724602
Yeah, the range he has on some songs, like Nasty Habits, is outrageous. He just goes up and down from normal to manic so quickly.

For me, it's Weird Science. Simple as.

>>126724814
I like weird science too, the instrumentation on it is really pleasant.

I'm very partial to their early Post-Punk sound on the first 3 albums but I love a majority of their output all the same. Listen to picrel if you haven't, It's practically an Oingo Boingo record.

>>126724588 (OP)
Gave this album and Nothing to Fear a listen for the first time recently and every single song in both has been stuck in my head since. It's been a real challenge not to over-listen and wear them out.

Favourites include:
fucking all of them

only a lad or nothing to fear?

We Close Our Eyes
Danny Elfman has such a great voice

>>126725391
Only a Lad is good but I feel like Nothing to Fear is really solid. I just feel like I hear Only a Lad more often.

>>126725450
I think my favorite song with him on vocals alone is Stay, I love how melancholy the whole track feels, despite how it moves.

I like little girls (the song)

>>126724588 (OP)
Bartek is a really underrated guitarist

>>126724588 (OP)
I prefer Devo

Insanity has become my favorite song of theirs due to the insane percussion.

>>126725143
they werent post punk faggot they were new wave

>>126731943
they werent new wave faggot they were zolo

>>126732018
zolo is a post-hoc genre and not real

>>126731943
Only a Lad is post punky to an extent by way of XTC, but yeah to call them a post punk band is pretty silly

I love them, they're my absolute favorites

>>126726395
I think the number of standout tracks on Only A Lad is greater, but my favorite Oingo Boingo songs are on Nothing to Fear.
