| You and I seem to share alot of the same taste, MB. I am a fan of Echo and the Bunnymen and my fav LP by them is the self titled album, which has one of my favorite 80's classics ' Lips Like Sugar' great band. | |

| I'm a huge fan of these guys. During college, I played the hell out of their greatest hits CD. I actually first got into them after hearing their Doors cover on the Lost Boys soundtrack. No list of Alternative 80's bands is definitive without including these guys. | |

| I like most of their albums, especially the early ones. Also in the 90's they had a side project "Electrafixion" which was heavier power pop. I really enjoyed that one. | |

Yeah, I noticed that manny. We do seem to have a ton in common. Ironically, the "S/T" album is my favorite as well and my favorite song they ever did is "Lips Like Sugar"! LOL crazy right?  SAHB, I will definitely look into Electrofixation. Sounds like something I need for the collection. Has anyone got Echo & the Bunnymen's new album that came out in '09? It's called "The Fountain" - I just ordered it yesterday from Amazon. Really looking forward to hearing it. | |

Me too. I actually prefer their version. That Electrafixion Burned is a really good album. Funny thing is I would put Ian McCulloch's Candleland above any of the Echo & the Bunnymen stuff. It's all good, but that is my favorite. | |

| I think when Ian was doing solo stuff the Bunnymen put out an album with Noel Burke on vocals. I like some of the songs on that one too. | |
