A little glance back to the 80’s. Not a time of necessarily great music, but certainly memorable music. In 1981 at Stoughton Middle School “Kings of the Wild Frontier” was the must have album.
Looking back Adam and the Ants actually stand the test of time rather well. Their background was the 70’s punk movement, they toured with Siouxsie and the Banshees, and were influenced by the Sex Pistols (but very few punk bands of that era were not) and at one point were managed by Malcolm McLaren (formerly manager of the Sex Pistols).
As a band they went on to greater success after they spit from McLaren and their influence was huge as they were a band that bridged the gap between punk of the 70’s and new wave of the 80’s.
Here is Kings of the Wild Frontier.
