Basically the whole New Romantic / Electro era.
So many great British groups and songs from that time.
Duran Duran, Spandau Ballet, The Associates, China Crisis, Japan, ABC, Tubeway Army, Yazoo, OMD, Joy Division/New Order to name a few.

A lot of great middle of the road music the eighties was actually a very decent decade for music especially in GB, but Michael Jackson was it's greatest star.

I was also pretty into the psych/garage rock revival in the mid eighties and was in a psych band for 18 months. Chaotic but massive fun - the club nights were sheer outlaw debauchery that would have made Ken Russell think twice

Metal, Hard Rock
At that time, all other music was shit.
Hated Ska, hated Skin Heads. As for Fuckin Casuals..with
Their pretend love of Funk and Soul.. Fuck Off.
Times change, love a bit of everything now, Still love Metal though.

Too be fair the 80s was a brilliant time of sub cultures and generally. You had all your little groups into one sort of sound.
