Always nice seeing decade lists from people who actually lived through the decade. Sometimes I wish I was around for the wildness of 70s/80s punk. Sometimes.

80s. The decade of my youth. Surfers and Joe Pop O Pie. Good to see you still rate them so high. I agree with sssvnnn; you intentionally avoid well known artists, but that is your superpower!!

You try to avoid all well known artists.
Why not.
Good to see Eugene Chadbourne.
I don`t know that particular albums but I can recommend the "Corpses Of Foreign War". That is a funny political album he did together with the musicians from the Violent Femmes.
