Oingo to the Boingo

I love this band, they seriously are just a little too awesome sometimes. Danny Elfman was and still is one hell of a composer. A love that there are actually quite a few bands that took the 80's openess to weirdness and just ran with it. This is one of those. Its amazing how many oingo boingo songs are all upbeat, but quite dark and strange at the same time. The sarcasm is pretty phenomenal in these videos. I absolutely love how they make fun of their own audience in the first one, its like the emo kids of the 80's. The social commentary in all of their songs is just so on and still pretty valid. So yeah, watch the videos, but mostly listen to the songs, then go listen to more songs, because i am pretty sure this band is a staple in time that cannot be removed.
