Our Take

Ah, Toyah Anthemin, the quintessentially quirky queen of the 80s. This new compilation album is like a time machine taking us back to the era of big hair, bold fashion, and even bolder music. From the synth-heavy beats of "It's a Mystery" to the rebellious anthem of "I Want to Be Free," Toyah's unique blend of punk and pop still manages to captivate listeners decades later. Her distinctive vocals and fearless attitude shine through in every track, making it impossible not to dance along or at least bop your head in approval. The standout moment has to be the hauntingly beautiful "Thunder in the Mountains," where Toyah's powerful voice soars over cascading guitars and driving drums, creating a truly epic listening experience. But it's not all seriousness and introspection on this album. Tracks like "Brave New World" and "Good Morning Universe" bring a lighthearted energy that is infectious, reminding us to not take life too seriously and just have fun. And isn't that what music is all about? In conclusion, Toyah Anthemin is a delightful blast from the past that reminds us of a time when music was daring, adventurous, and unapologetically flamboyant. Toyah may have been ahead of her time, but her music still resonates with those who appreciate a good ol' dose of eccentricity. So put on your neon legwarmers and pop in this album for a journey back to the wild and wonderful world of Toyah.
