Five Overlooked Synthpop Albums

Certain synthpop albums lack the visibility of their more illustrious compatriots. These are some gems which I feel were overlooked by the synthpop and electronic music community when they were first released:

Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark - Liberator
John Foxx and Louis Gordon - Crash and Burn
Hubert KaH - Hubert KaH
Merge -Lost Heroes
Wave in Head - Time to speak

"A war of technology
Threatens to ignite
Digital murder
The language of machines"
'Mindphaser' Front Line Assembly

My word. Synthpop? Hip-pop? Pip-pop? What kind of music do you listen to? How about some nice Yo-Yo Ma?

Thank you O'Friend Kuo, Number One of the Dave Matthews Band.

I would recommend Snog, an excellent Australian band to you.
