Comment:

When Oingo Boingo decided to call it a day at a Halloween concert in 1995 (immortalized in the [i]Farewell[/i] disc, including the woozy carnival atmospherics of "Helpless" and the keg party-appropriate "Ain't This the Life"), the ever-expanding/contracting collective had a back catalogue to be proud of. For one thing, [i]Boingo Alive[/i] is a live album without an audience, bringing twisted takes to the band's first decade of offbeat jams, from the tense twang of "Country Sweat" to the squealing sax lead of "Violent Love." As for what happened in the years since, [i]Dark at the End of the Tunnel[/i] and [i]Boingo[/i] drop the new wave inclinations of [i]Nothing to Fear[/i] and [i]Good for Your Soul[/i] for paranoid pop ("When the Lights Go Out") and expansive swan songs ("Hey!").
