Have synthstruments, will record. The mantra of 1984.

I get it. You guys are sad. 

So, some bands followed, say, The Moody Blues onto their prog-rock quasi-classical path. And some used The Beatles as their spirit guides. Seemingly no one in this era was interested in following The Stones or Zeppelin BUT many many many took their cues from Jim Morrison, either became Joy Division or Bauhaus or the like. Or they followed that Doors road toward the darkness, like The Cure and And Also the Trees. I found it somewhat effective. Would I return? I could be interested in what these guys come up with a few years down the line. Shouldn’t be too difficult. They have FOURTEEN albums in their catalog and released one as recently as 2016 (Born Into the Waves).
