New Wave Outpost Forum

For those of you soulseekers and ready to know than in the first 80s it was not only in the USA or UK that existed enormous new wave songs I list some of our Spanish unknown NW anthems.

All the songs I list are from the first 80s. The name of the band is in capitals, the other is the name of the song.

I'd love to hear some of this Spanish new wave. I have an MP3 disc of Chilean and Argentinian new wave/melodic rock (including Soda Stereo) which I've thoroughly enjoyed.

Yes, some of them (not the obscure ones) are available on cd. Some records have been re-released in cd, but is more easy to find them in compilations. I'll search and give you some good on-line shops wher you can try if interested...
