New Wave Outpost Forum

Which new wave CD, stream, record, tape, or radio show are you currently listening to?

I have been listening to my records a lot lately. My recently-played stack consists of:

Second Layer - World of Rubber
Stan Ridgway - The Big Heat
Depeche Mode - A Broken Frame
A-ha - Scoundrel Days
Blancmange - Mange Tout
Cabaret Voltaire - Drinking Gasoline

and then some singles,

Cetu Javu - Situations
Book of Love - I Touch Roses
Clan of Xymox - Imagination
Ministry - Revenge
Fad Gadget - Love Parasite
Hohokam - King


I know some of you will cite that a few of those are not strictly New Wave; and you are correct---But in my book, the style of NW can be expanded a bit to include records "of the time" which contain elemental aspects of the genre.

What have you all been listening to?

Frazier Chorus - Sue
Kraftwerk - Computer World, Electric Cafe
David Sylvian - Dead Bees on a Cake, Gone to Earth
The Lightning Seeds - Cloudcuckooland
Telex - Looney Tunes

Not sure if they really qualify as new wave, but I just discovered to my pleasant surprise 'River City People' through their song 'Walking on Ice' which has a distinctive Kate Bush vibe.

Thinking it was probably a one-off, I checked out two other songs, 'Say Something Good' and 'I'm Still Waiting' and liked both of those too, so this is probably a keeper.
