A shocking debut album from a New Wave band from the US.
The band's first album was released in 1979. It was a compilation of their work, which gained a lot of support after releasing a string of singles, including "Rock Lobster."
The album captivated the US with its kitschy lyrics and party sound. It is so unique that it was ranked in Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest albums. It is also famous as the album that John Lennon enjoyed just before his death.
