500 Greatest Albums of the 1980s ... Ranked! # 403 Violent Femmes - Violent Femmes

 


I try not to get too engaged with the order of these lists. I'm getting older and am trying to adjust to the fact that these things are just opinions that reflect editorial decision making and commmitee consensus.

It still surprises me that this extraotdinary and pivotal album from my youth ranks in the low four hundreds of this particular exercise. I listened to it at five this morning wondering initially whether it was just too brash and adenoidal for such an early hour. I was gripped. There's no record like it.
