Sadly, some of you only know them as the "Love Shack" band, but the first two B-52's records are wonderful, quirked-out fun! Early on they were a GREAT punk/new wave band! More supporting evidence here:

Dig.

oh hell yes!

this is very good news

i love the b52s

lol @ love shack (it's okay, but...). rock lobster extended version is one of the crowning achievements of western civilization.

I don't like the b52s but im glad you're still posting

ridiculously fun band. HOT LAVA!!

Ok, id be lying if i didn't admit that as a kid at the skating rink that we all went nuts to Rock Loobster yo

First album is just great! Love also their Mesopotamia-mini-lp. Going to listen that live!

It sounds good. I would love to get a copy of this on LP.

Great news! Give Me Back My Man destroys, that whole second album destroys. Maybe the most punk rock thing that isn't even punk rock.

i had some dream the other night about the B-52's. like they were the most punked out of that era than anyone else. they played a slightlier more fucked up version of what we recognize.

maybe I should find out some way to tell my dreams to get a life. haha!! err!! maybe I could have an outta dream experience. a dream outta yr dream to tell yr dreams to get a life!!! haha!!! err!

and that schizo woman with the ghoulish white paint who writes nasty things about me on her wall with lipstick when im trying to redo her floors doesn't bother me anymore. crazy psycho bitch!!!

Is this just an iTunes release? Goddammit... Hopefully it'll see the light of the laser and/or the needle soon.
