referencing Information Society, CD+G, Album, 9 25691-2
I got this album a little late of the game, and being a huge fan of Depeche Mode and the like, one cannot see InfoSoc as a "great" band, but I will say that this album was way ahead of its time. The hit "What's On Your Mind (Pure Energy)" should be on everyone's hits of the 80's list. And the weird thing is the technology involved with the production of this CD was interesting; I popped this CD into my 3DO (gaming system, which has since been extinct for at least 5 years) and it freaked me out that a band took the time to create this (childlike, yet) interactive karaoke and fact machine that was on the screen before me. I will never forget that, and it adds depth to this 80's club band.
