500 Greatest Albums of the 1980s ... Ranked! # 436 Adam & The Ants - Kings of the Wild Frontier

 


This was much more to my tastes than Bloody Toto. Adam & The Ants were quite an exciting thing when they came into people's lives on Top of the Pops with Dog Eat Dog. They were a big deal at school in the months leading up to their chart entry but of course after TOTP there was a wild rush to disassociate yourself from them and adere to something more obscure and hipper. The album is now probably most notable for the still fabulous singles. Some of the filler is rather harder work.
