Could somebody recommend me some vintage 80s jangle-rock (besides REM)?

Oh! And the Windbreakers, as well. I used to have Terminal and Run, which were both cool

The Windbreakers. Wow, these guys are good.

Great name! Conjurs thin cheap jackets or people with too much intestinal air.

Hands down the best power pop ever to come out of Mississippi. Not that there's much competition.

wasn't sure where to put this, but has anyone heard Arrogance w/Don Dixon? I came across their name in the liner notes to a teenline comp years ago, but still haven't heard them. anyone?

not from the 80's exactly, but imperial teen are great and jangly. gravity talks by green on red is a good record, but i never thought of them as jangly. too much velvets in their sound for that, imo

hmm maybe i'll find a better thread for my arrogance query. according to allmusic they went from byrdsjangle/early-mid70s West Coast post-psych/pop/rock/folk-rock/country-rock to more rocking powerpop?

Have a look on Youtube - search: arrogance don dixon

oh yeah...thanks. wow, this is garbage.

It was educational anyhow.

Dream Syndicate - Days of Wine & Roses
The Rain Parade - Emergency Third Rail Power Trip
The Silos - Cuba & self titled The Silos (which I think was their 3rd record)
The Plimsouls - Everywhere at Once
The Go Betweens - Before Hollywood
Camper Van Beethoven - II & III, Our Beloved Revolutionary Sweetheart
Robyn Hitchcock- Globe of Frogs
The Church - Heyday
The Feelies - Crazy Rhythms & Only Life
Pylon - Chomp & Gyrate

The guitar-skronk of Dream Syndicate and Gang of Four-isms of Pylon, though I love both, don't really jangle to me. One pretty jangly LP I've pulled out several times recently is "Greenhouse" by Absolute Grey (1984,) which has lots of that strummy Rickenbacker sound of early REM.

And were already mentioned in this thread 4 years ago. Carry on...

jangle-pop!

here are two of my favorite songs ever. i think these are jangle-pop

Despite being a fan of Shack, I didn't listen to the full Pale Fountains albums until this week. Not bad!

The Pale Fountains - Pacific Street (Virgin, 1984)
The Pale Fountains - …From Across The Kitchen Table (Virgin, 1985)

Also Ian Broudie post-Wild Swans/pre-Lightning Seeds:

Care - Diamonds & Emeralds (Camden, 1984)

A friend was listening to the Shrimp Boat box set, which made me think that a label like Captured Tracks needs to put out box sets of The Jazz Butcher and Game Theory.

Flying Nun in general. The Clean, The Bats, The Verlaines, Bird Nest Roys, Look Blue Go Purple, Straightjacket Fits, THE Chills etc etc

Coincidentally REM big fans I THINK. Seem to remember they called The Chills the best band in the world.

The June Brides
Wolfhounds (will vouch for early stuff at least)
Razorcuts
Sea Urchins
Start (anyone know more about this Kansas band? I'm mildly obsessed with this one track: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZbmIXWE0e8k )

Yeah, I just ordered the Captured Tracks box set of The Bats that came out a few weeks ago.

723 entries of jangle pop on RYM:

Highest ranking newish album is Real Estate's Days at 97. Ones I don't have are Jacobites, The Sundays, Polaris, Håkan Hellström and Trashcan Sinatras.

Cleaners From Venus for lo-fi UK jangle

probably the Kimberly Rew solo album? I should get that some day

Hmm, I've never thought of The Sundays as jangle, but I guess they technically are?

Omg. Ever since discogs dot com became uncooperative I've been needing a new reference....thanks for those 728 pages !!

Game Theory.

The first album by The Loud Family is my favorite by Scott Miller.

The Stars of Heaven - "Rain On The Sea"....vintage 80s country-ish jangle

i second the Long Ryders mention way upthread too

The Sex Clark Five (who seem to have had a reunion album last year, on Spotify, but I'm just listening to it now so no idea if it's good).

This was always a favorite:

Contemporary jangle pop distinguished by a female version of Stipe.

Eternal Summers - Gold and Stone

the dentists.

the method actors. ga indie jangle OGs

what exactly makes nicole a female version of stipe?

Was Jefferson Airplane much of an influential touchstone for any of these 80s jangle groups? I know the Velvet Underground is always stated, but listening back to old JA, I got to say sonically their first couple LPs sound in line with these 80s groups.

The method actors

The Nields

Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever are kind of in there between early Go-Betweens, The Clean, other antipodals (and they seem like they probably like Television's "Days", T's Byrdsiest ever, even achieve the harmonies, atypically enough). Neighbor Courtney Barnett (who also might fit, though the one w Kurt Vile not rec) has observed that Melbourne doesn't have no beach, but RBCF make their own (other neighbors Dick Diver, who also might fit) honored their sister city on Melbourne Florida/ Anyway 2017's The French PressEP is a really nnniiiice and driving place to start w Coastals (they've got older stuff on here too) https://rollingblackoutscoastalfever.bandcamp.com/

Sleep Good's "Teen Sprite."

(Earl: I'd say so, or at least they should be--and the Charlatans, and Beau Brummells.)

If you want some really great undersung 60s jangle check out Darby Slick's raga guitar on the live Great Society set. That's Grace's brother-in-law in her pre JA band.
for 80s stuff does Savage Republic's monotone guitar count as jangle? I think that is the sound you get from it anyway.
& the Abecedarians also depend on droning jangle I think.

Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever are kind of in there

Yes yes yes! This is my favorite guitar band to emerge in God knows how many years. They are fantastic.

Additionally, as stated upthread, please check out Winter Hours. We know how to jangle here in NJ and they had the sound down. Hyacinth Girl is a lost classic. They should have been more popular, and unfortunately they had a tragic ending.

Maybe I'll try them again---seemed like, back when their vids were occasionally on 120 Minutes of MTV, that the lead vocals were too Murmur-y for me---I still liked Stipe at that point, but even then one was enough.
Aztec Camera's High Land, Hard Rain was refreshing, and I think would have been even if it weren't so against the grain/trends of early 80s. Other AZ albums of the 80s, also 1990's Stray were okay-to-good, and certainly more quality over quantity, although Roddy Frame could sometimes sound like---a better Barry Manilow? Dunno, I'm not big on a lot of earnest young Brit male voxxes. But that guitar, those tunes, yow. (The guitar was sometimes down in the mix, but the tunes could feel it).

Speaking of 80s trends, you get Steve Lillywhite's DRUM SOUND--hipster/post-punk/HEY MTV---with robust jangle and more of those supple tunes on Marshall Crenshaw's Field Day, and for me the (sufficiently blended)contrast works even better because of supporting his earnest young American male vox, always blander than Frame's, or too consistently subtle for me.

The Ocean Blue had their first 3 albums reissued recently, and they contain a lot of jangle rock and 80s production.

Speaking of supple tunes and guitars, got those w scruffy, take-it-or-leave-it voice and words on Freedy Johnston's Can You Fly, although that's from '92---The Trouble Tree was pretty good too, from 1990, '89? Dunno if he did any in the 80s.

First Dumptruck album holds up great. Subsequent albums blend in with all the other 80s bands too much for me. I ought to revisit them though I suppose.

Yes first Dumptruck is a fine example.
