The 1985 Listening Post- Pseudo Echo - Love an Adventure

Pseudo Echo - Love an Adventure


#488/1121
November 1985
Pseudo Echo
Love An Adventure
Genre: Synth Pop
3.75 out of 5


If you hadn’t already moved on from the electric/synth laden sounds of early 80s New Wave, complete with keys as saxophone solos, Pseudo Echo was there for you.
Trouble is, for me at least, having gone through 1000+ records in less than a year I can definitely feel the burnout of this style. It’s not just that other bands do it better, they do. I mean, listen to their single “Don’t Go” and tell me that you don’t think Oingo Boingo was able to inject this exact type of song with more energy and interest at the time. But if you’re hankering for some mid-tempo Duran Duran while the Durans are doing their side projects, “Lonely Without You” has ya covered.
