Is this the worst band of the Eighties?

Seriously. The look. The lyrics. The sound. That dreadful, reedy, off pitch voice. Wendy James’ rather obvious appeal notwithstanding, can anyone name a worse band from the Eighties than Transvision Vamp? It’s even worse than I remembered!

    Okay, so Landslide of Love was not their finest moment, but Transvision Vamp knocked out some cracking tunes. Tsk tsk.

  2. James Graham Says:

    Name one!

  3. Nick Says:

    ‘Baby I Don’t Care’, for one.

    And given that the Eighties managed to spawn Sigue Sigue Sputnik, calling Transvision Vamp the worst band of the decade is oddly perverse.

  4. James Graham Says:

    You mean this? Sorry. Wendy James’ undeniable appeal aside, no way,

    And hey, Sigue Sigue Sputnik were funny. You’ll be dissing Daisy Chainsaw next!

  5. Tristan Mills Says:

    Baby I Don’t Care is a great pop song.

    Just watching some Sigue Sigue Sputnik- its rather like a saner version of Alien Sex Fiend. Not too bad musically although totally over the top hair and clothes and profoundly silly…

    I think you guys are all missing the point. The music is irrelevant!

  7. James Graham Says:

    No, I got that Titus!

    Are you mad ? Some of the best music of the century! I have Pop Art & Velveteen playing on the ipod on my desk as I type, and I’m loving it!
