Our Take

Frankie Goes to Hollywood's album "Liverpool" is a rollercoaster of synth-pop madness that will leave you both bopping and scratching your head in confusion. The band's eclectic mix of electronic beats, catchy hooks, and wild vocals is both mesmerizing and slightly overwhelming. From the pulsating rhythms of "Warriors of the Wasteland" to the dreamy haze of "Rage Hard", Frankie Goes to Hollywood takes you on a wild ride through the streets of Liverpool.

Lead singer Holly Johnson's larger-than-life vocals are a force to be reckoned with, soaring over the frenetic instrumentation with a mix of power and vulnerability. The band's lyrics delve into themes of love, lust, and rebellion, with a touch of dystopian imagery thrown in for good measure. Tracks like "Watching the Wildlife" and "For Heaven's Sake" showcase the band's ability to craft infectious pop anthems with a dark, edgy twist.

While "Liverpool" may not be for the faint of heart, it is sure to satisfy fans of the unconventional and the experimental. With its bold sonic landscapes and fearless attitude, Frankie Goes to Hollywood proves once again that they are not afraid to push the boundaries of pop music. So buckle up, dear readers, and get ready for a wild ride through the streets of Liverpool with this electrifying album. Cheers!

About the artist

Frankie Goes to Hollywood

Ah, Frankie Goes to Hollywood. The band that took the 80s by storm with their catchy hooks and controversial themes. Hailing from Liverpool, this quintet burst onto the scene in 1983 with their debut single "Relax", which became an instant hit despite being banned by the BBC for its explicit lyrics. Led by the charismatic frontman Holly Johnson, Frankie Goes to Hollywood quickly followed up their success with another chart-topper, "Two Tribes", a politically charged anthem that captured the tense atmosphere of the Cold War era. Their debut album, "Welcome to the Pleasuredome", showcased their unique blend of synth-pop, dance, and rock influences, earning critical acclaim and solidifying their place in music history. But it wasn't all smooth sailing for this eclectic group. Internal tensions and clashes with their record label eventually led to their breakup in 1987, leaving fans clamoring for more of their infectious sound. Despite their relatively brief time in the spotlight, Frankie Goes to Hollywood left an indelible mark on the music scene, influencing countless artists with their bold lyrics and adventurous production. So, if you're looking for a taste of 80s nostalgia with a dose of social commentary, look no further than Frankie Goes to Hollywood. Their music may be "Two Tribes" apart from the mainstream, but once you dive into their Pleasuredome, you'll find yourself swept away by their infectious energy and undeniable talent. Cheers to Holly, Paul, Mark, Peter, and Brian - the boys who showed us that sometimes, it's good to go a little wild.
