The first of several Oingo Boingo compilations--this one released to capitalize on leader Danny Elfman's early success as a film composer--1989's SKELETONS IN THE CLOSET is a handy precis of Oingo Boingo's several albums, all of which are uneven to varying degrees. This 12-song compilation focuses on their earlier, better releases, with quirky, horn-powered new wave gems like "Little Girls," the semi-hit "Private Life," "Only a Lad" and the career-defining "Nothing to Fear (But Fear Itself)" particular highlights. John Hughes fans will be disappointed to learn that their film theme "Weird Science" is not to be found here, however. The two-disc ANTHOLOGY is more inclusive, but for casual fans, this may be all the Oingo Boingo you'll need.

By the mid-'80s, new wave was long dead and gone, yet somehow this didn't stop Oingo Boingo from continuing their quirky horn-rock stylings with the minimum accommodation made to commercial realities. 1985's DEAD MAN'S PARTY sounds no different from their earlier records, except that ...

BOI-NGO--no relation to leader Danny Elfman's solo record SO-LO--is one of Oingo Boingo's quirkiest and least immediately engaging records. A couple of careful listens, however, show it to be one of the group's most satisfying and durable efforts. At the time, reviews focused largely ...

Scarlett Johansson Break Up CD  (2009)

Best Of Oingo Boingo: Skeletons In The Closet CD music
CD $11.45  Top 500 Audio Samples
Pete Yorn recorded BREAK UPin 2006 on the heels of one, but it sat on the shelf until 2009, appearing just a matter of months after BACK & FORTH, and a year after his duet partner, Scarlett Johannson, cast as Brigitte Bardot to Yorn's Serge Gainsbourg, made an awkwardly arty splash with a Tom Waits covers album, but the album that really casts a shadow over this is VOL. 1, the 2008 record by She & Him, the teaming of M. Ward and indie actress Zooey Deschanel. Yorn and Johannson cut their album long before She & Him, but surfacing in its wake, they can't help but seem a bit like the polished, polite answer to the twee, precious charms of Zooey & M. Ward. BREAK UP does trump VOL. 1 conceptually, chronicling the dissolution of a romance as a series of duets, and Scarlett is a more-than-worthy foil to Yorn. Includes eight original compositions by Pete/Scarlett in the spirit of Serge Gainsbourg's recording with Brigitte Bardot. The album re-enacts the tempestuous course of ...
Animal Chin
Jaga Jazzist Animal Chin CD  (2002)

Best Of Oingo Boingo: Skeletons In The Closet music CDs
CD $10.35  Audio Samples
On this absolutely intoxicating album, Animal Chin, Norway's Jaga Jazzist brilliantly combine everything from Stereolab to Mego recording artists like Fennesz to Autechre and Aphex Twin. The title track brilliantly alternates between laid-back jazz and tweaked Squarepusher drum'n'bass -- that is, until it spirals into a retro chic, vibes-and-synthesizer, bachelor-pad groove. ...
Rules
Supagroup Rules CD  (2005)

Best Of Oingo Boingo: Skeletons In The Closet songs
CD $9.79  5 stars Audio Samples
Ah, yes, the '70s. You remember the '70s, of course: big hair, big sunglasses, bell bottoms, Rat pedals, lead singers who kept referring to women as "mama." That's basically Supagroup's whole frame of reference: if you're over 30, think Aerosmith (if you're under 30, think Lenny Kravitz). The only thing that betrays Supagroup's second album as a product of the 21st century is the band's deep and sincere love of the F word, which didn't crop up so often on rock albums 30 years ago. Everything else is vintage '70s: the hair; the clothes; the cheese-a-rific hooks; ...

It's arguable that at no point since his 1960s heyday has Bob Dylan been as celebrated as in the decade following his critically acclaimed 1997 album TIME OUT OF MIND. Numerous films, books, and albums--mostly Columbia's impressive archive series of reissues--have been part of a universal canonization of the singer and met with considerable ...
