Details
[Edit]An excellent although not perfect introduction to the art rock and dance-pop world of the Suburbs (more tracks from the group's early, noisy singles would be nice, although the first CD appearance of the amazing 1979 single "World War III" is a highlight), 1992's Ladies and Gentlemen, the Suburbs Have Left the Building makes a strong case for the Suburbs as not only one of Minneapolis' finest, but one of the best post-punk bands in the country during their 1978-1986 existence. A well-chosen selection of tracks from their Twin/Tone and Mercury releases (the group's self-titled A&M album is thankfully omitted), the 19-track compilation shows all sides of the group's multifaceted sound, from the brief, manic squall of "Tape Your Wife to the Ceiling" to the Roxy Music-like majesty of "The Best Is Over." All of the group's best songs, including the dancefloor hits "Waiting" and "Music for Boys" as well as the gimmicky but lovable "Rattle My Bones," are present and accounted for. It's not all the Suburbs one will ever need — at the very least, In Combo and Credit in Heaven are essential — but it's a fine entry into the group for newcomers.
