Album Review
The Liverpool quintet A Flock of Seagulls first gained attention in the dance clubs with "Telecommunication," included on this debut release. The band benefited from heavy play on MTV and quickly became known for their outrageous fashion and lead singer Mike Score's waterfall-like haircut. However, their self-titled debut is an enjoyable romp that was set apart from other synth-heavy acts of the time by Paul Reynolds' unique guitar style. The kinetic "I Ran (So Far Away)" became a video staple and a Top Ten radio hit. "A Space Age Love Song," with its synthesizer washes and echo-laden guitar, also managed to score at radio. The rest of the album consists of hyperactive melodies, synthesizer noodlings, and electronic drumming. The lyrics are forgettable. In fact, they rarely expand on the song titles, but its all great fun and a wonderful collection of new wave ear candy.
Customer Reviews
best album ever
a flock of seagulls are amazing
One of the best New Wave LP's
So much fun music packed into one album. Alien abduction theme adds to the weirdness of the genre. Space Age Love Song is a great rock love song. Won an award for best rock instrumental with D.N.A. Glad to see the original recording added to Itunes, their collection albums had re-recorded versions that did not much the quality of this one.
Classic
The best LP in the 80's ----- AFOS was so ahead of its time it wasnt funny.
The sounds and gear used in the 80's is what i will never forget.
