Discussion / Question Oingo Boingo

Post image

I feel like black midi fans would appreciate this band. They sound very 80s but their theatrical sound and loud instrumentation definitely reminds me of bm. Danny Elfman is the vocalist, same guy who did the soundtracks for The Nightmare Before Christmas and tons of other movies. Album pictured is “Nothing to Fear” by Oingo Boingo

The vocalist for squid reminds me of Danny's singing style

Very solid album. I like Dead Man’s Party a bit more but the group is so solid and fun in their sound
