Before he wrote half the soundtracks in the world (Pee Wee's Big Adventure, Batman, The Nightmare Before Christmas) Danny Elfman led himself an eccentric little rock band called Oingo Boingo. Actually they weren't so little; in fact, the eight-man band boasted one of rock's finest horn sections in addition to Elfman's devilishly good, often humorous songs. Dead Man's Party is Boingo's finest hour, melding their whacked-out mix of XTC, Frank Zappa, and Tower of Power with a genuine pop sensibility. Elfman is in perfect vocal form here, leading the combo through their biggest hit, "Weird Science" (which put Elfman on the soundtrack path) as well as Boingo chestnuts "Fool's Paradise" and the infectious, macabre title track. --Michael Ruby

Summary: Oingo's best album-hands down
Comment: This is by far Oingo Boingo's best album-no questions asked. Dead Man's Party (the song that introduced me to them), Just Another Day, Same Man I Was Before, and Wierd Science are the best songs the band ever recorded, as far as I'm concerned. There are only a couple of songs here that really don't do anything for me.

Summary: Dead Man's Party
Comment: The CD has two of my favorite songs, 'Dead Man's Party,' and 'Weird Science.' The rest of the CD quickly grew on me and now I can't think of not having it in my CD collection. When it shipped it didn't take very long for it to come in, I'd say about a week. It was in great condition when I got it and the disc itself looked brand new. Thanks a lot, and keep up the great work.

Summary: "Stay' in my head
Comment: I first heard this album when I was on the road to and from the beach with a couple of good friends. While the rest of the album rocked my socks, it was "Stay" that got stuck in my head. I was singing it all the time, and the melody was so haunting, that I had to run out and get it. I got it on LP, and as a testiment of how much I loved it, I pulled out my record player out everyday for 3 months because I needed to hear it. Thankfully, I eventually got the cd too.
I hope that everyone who experiences this album will enjoy it as much as I did.
