This was the worst year of the 80s without a dispute. Live Aid was more noteworthy than most of the albums that came out in 85.

the mid 80s in general were so much worse than the very early 80s and very late 80s

It was a damn good year

Hip-hop isn't music though.

Plenty of great metal albums if you like metal. Other forms of rock kinda sucked in 1985 specifically I guess.

>cocteau twins relesed one of their best eps
>bush released one of the best pop albums of all time
>jesus & mary chain invented noise pop and pioneered shoegaze
>cure released one of their best songs, in beetwen days
>felt released a great album
>the wake's debut one of the best dream pop abums ever

and this is only the more famous stuff.

Spreading the Disease
Killing is my Business
Hell Awaits.

Great thrash metal albums that year, many other metal genres as well

They were. I blame it on the pop culture in general being relatively weak in mid-decade.

Kate Bush - Hounds of Love
The Replacements - Tim
Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - The Firstborn is Dead
The Pogues - Rum, Sodomy and the Lash
Husker Du - New Day Rising
The Smiths - Meat is Murder
Sade - Promise
Tears for Fears - Songs from the Big Chair
Sonic Youth - Bad Moon Rising
The Jesus and Mary Chain - Psychocandy
Tom Waits - Rain Dogs
The Cure - The Head on the Door

that's a few pretty brilliant albums??

Oil & Gold by Shriekback is the most important thing ever released so no

Hounds of Love, Meat is Murder and Rain Dogs

The Chameleons - What Does Anything Mean? Basically tho

Pre-NWA/Public Enemy hip-hop has aged like shit. Those artists aged like shit too but slightly less so.

On my date of birth it was Whitney Houston--Where Do Broken Hearts Go.

Jesus Christ, how horrifying.jpg

80s haircuts were awful; they made women look 45 when they were 20.

Mine was Michael Jackson--Ben.

1985 sucked...but this was hands down the best album of the year...insane band.
