Iconic Albums Every Month

After the ‘70s and ‘60s videos, here it is, most iconic album every month of the ‘80s!

These videos take a good amount of time to make, so if you enjoy them, please consider leaving a like and subscribing to the channel. Thank you!

If any audio is not in the video, it means the studio of that artist blocked the video, so it had to be removed in order for the video to stay up.

Also - great job for the 80’s being so different! Punk, soft pop, rock, hard rock, rap, r&b, ballads, pop, country. It had it all. The 80’s is like a giant shuffle of music.

I miss some titles: Rio (Duran Duran), True Blue (Madonna), Crimes of Passion (Pat Benatar), Reckless (Bryan Adams), Pump (Aerosmith), Kick (INXS), Genesis (Genesis), Love at First Sting (Scorpions)....BUT the video is really fantastic. So many brilliant albums from different genres.

I think the 80s was the decade that musically changed the most from the early years to the later years, it certainly had character and had something for most people's taste.

Some albums from older bands could have been considered: Black Sabbath - Heaven and Hell (1980) and perhaps also Mob Rules (1981), Ozzy Osbourne released 5 albums during the 1980s with Blizzard of Ozz (1980) being perhaps the most iconic of them but the next two could also be considered. Deep Purple's Perfect Strangers (1984) also might belong to this list. But I do appreciate the difficulty of selecting from the large body of music having been released each month.

Pretty cool how the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Nirvana started in the '80s

The smiths are really good. Very beautiful songs

I would've put Songs from the Big Chair (Tears for Fears) in February 1985 and The Real Thing (Faith No More) in June 1989

First off, thank you for making these. The album covers helps me when digging through record bins. Secondly, please make a 90’s.

I know there are so many great albums released on the same month, still I really think it’s a flaw not to include Genesis’s Invisible Touch in 1986. It reached n 1 in US charts and sold millions of copies worldwide.

Songs from the big chair - Tears for Fears, february 1985

[vanplq]

Thanks for respecting Permanent Waves, Moving Pictures, Face Dances, British Steel, Number Of The Beast, Screaming For Vengeance, Holy Diver, Powerslave, Peace Sells, So Far So Good🥹🥹

80s: disco, punk, thrash metal.

Songs from the big chair?
Born in the USA?

For May 1988, I would replace Van Halen's OU812 with Queensryche's Operation I hate this word, but I genuinely believe Operation Mindcrime is a masterpiece

How are you not going to put sonic youth's daydream nation here?

[UR_Right]

Def Leppard, Hysteria was released in August of '87. I would have it in that spot instead of Michael Jackson's, Bad. He's already got whatever month/yr. Thriller was released, so maybe let Hysteria have August of '87. It's Def Leppard's most successful album in terms of sales and in terms of general mass appeal compared with their previous albums. I know Bad is a tough draw for them because it is such an iconic album and Michael was the king of pop and just owned the 80s as far as individual solo artists go, but the mid to late 80s was dominated by the hair metal bands prominently featured on MTV, so Hysteria is kind of a no brainer there.

I gotta say that the 80's had it all. No matter the genre. It was all killer and little to no filler. Tons of great songs, bands, and solo artists came out in the 80's.

Can't believe there isn't Sonic Youth's "Daydream Nation" in 1988
