The scariest album of the 90s. Makes Marilyn Manson and the other supposedly "shocking" artists of the decade look like pussies. I love it.

I had to laugh at the super-serious photo of OMD on the Coachella website.

Disappointed to see how low on the list Sparks are. Boo.

Thanks, although I get a little bit embarrassed when he tells me his favorite song is Sextown USA. Luckily, he thinks it is called Sixtown USA and is about numbers.

My kid is 8, and the bands we currently agree on are The Beatles, Sparks, and Super Furry Animals. He likes a lot of crap songs like Ghostbusters, The Final Countdown, and Doctorin' the Tardis too.  There is really no way to keep kids from the top 40/radio Disney stuff, they hear it at school or at friend's houses.

What about Jonny?
Euros Childs (Gorky's Zygotic Mynci) + Norman Blake (Teenage Fanclub) = perfect summer pop record
