Oh,for the love of god! I forgot Humans Lib by Howard Jones,Official Version by Front 242,Secret Wish by Propaganda,Whos Afraid by the Art Of Noise,Ebbhead by Nitzer Ebb.This question is much more difficult than i thought it would be.

The same as simpeldumbpilot and in addition,
Malcom Mclaren`s "Fans",Wax`s "American english" and Yello`s "Stella".

Sten,at last a kindred spirit,but i do prefer Malcolm McLarens Duck Rock LP to Fans we should make each other a compilation tape ,i need to hear more bands like these,the UK music scene has become musicless,too many boybands!

The day I get the "drivecord" to my recordplayer, ( I`ve been waiting almost a year now )I`le be happy to make you a "personal best of CD".
Almost all my 80`s favorits is on albums, 7" or 12".
