Our Take

In a world full of musical mediocrity, The B-52s Best Of: Dance This Mess Around is like a breath of fresh air kicking down your door and inviting you to a surreal dance party in space. This compilation album is a wild trip down memory lane, filled with all the quirky, infectious tunes that made this band a cult favourite.

From the moment the sparkly guitars kick in on "Rock Lobster", you know you're in for a good time. With its wacky lyrics and colourful visual imagery, this song perfectly encapsulates the unique and eccentric style of The B-52s. Tracks like "Love Shack" and "Planet Claire" showcase the band's ability to craft irresistibly catchy hooks and upbeat melodies that will have you dancing around your living room like there's no tomorrow.

But what really sets this collection apart is the B-52s' knack for blending genres with reckless abandon. Their fusion of new wave, punk, and surf rock creates a sound that is utterly original and impossible to resist. Each song is a mini adventure, taking you on a whirlwind journey through a universe of cosmic proportions.

So put on your dancing shoes, grab a cosmic cocktail, and get ready to dance this mess around with The B-52s. This album is a glorious celebration of all things weird and wonderful in the world of music, and a reminder that sometimes you just need to let loose and have a good time. Cheers to The B-52s for keeping the party going strong!
