Georgia's B-52's came up from the south with a mission to puncture all musical pretension with a highly developed kitsch aesthetic and a savvy sense of fun. They were one of the definitive American new wave bands, and one of the most enjoyable. As shown on this generous two-disc career summary, the band's sound was informed by such pop culture detritus as horror movies, surf music, Las Vegas, and early-'60s dances like the Mashed Potato. Key early tracks such as the absurdist "Rock Lobster" and the evocative, grooving "52 Girls" exemplify the blend of Cindy Wilson and Kate Pierson's post-modern girl group chirping and Fred Schneider's oddball declamations, while guitarist Ricky Wilson employed his best Dick Dale riffs to propel things along. The surprising second act in the band's career is represented by such '90s comeback smashes as "Deadbeat Club" and "Love Shack" which retain the spirit of the group's early material but add a new sheen. You couldn't ask for a better thumbnail sketch of the B-52's quirky magic than NUDE ON THE MOON.
Industry Reviews
7 out of 10 - ...The B-52's early work...was a buzzing hybrid of surf riffs, '50s B-movie scores and thrift-shop fashions...innovative guitar twanging and a gloriously cheap Farfisa organ sound...
Alternative Press (04/01/2002)
...This has all the essentials...The best single argument for a new wave revival...
