Rock List: Readers’ Best Eighties New Wave Bands

Inspired by last week’s announcement of the Regeneration Tour, we asked the Rock Dailyists to tell us their favorite New Wave acts of the 1980s. After rewatching the entire Savage Steve Holland filmography and tallying the votes, the readers have selected Echo & the Bunnymen as their favorite keyboard-stabbing, oddly hair-cutted New Wavers. Check out the entire top ten list after the jump. 1. Echo & the Bunnymen 2. New Order 3. Talking Heads 4. Psychedelic Furs 5. Elvis Costello 6. The Police 7. Depeche Mode 8. Duran Duran 9. The Cure 10. XTC [Photo: Musto/Redferns/Retna]

Readers’ Rock List: Hot Songs

Last week, as a tribute to our Rock Daily colleagues baking in the ninety-plus-degree Indio heat to bring back Coachella reportage, we asked our air-conditioned readers to pick their favorite “hot” songs. The readers have spoken, we’ve battled through our third-degree sunburns to compile the votes and you’ve selected Jimi Hendrix’s “Fire” as the most thermometer-bursting song. Check out the full list below. 1. Jimi Hendrix Experience — “Fire” 2. Johnny Cash — “Ring of Fire” 3. Sly & the Family Stone — “Hot Fun in the Summertime” 4. Bruce Springsteen — “I’m On Fire” 5. The Clash — “London’s Burning” 6. AC/DC — “Hell’s Bells” 7. The Beatles — “Here Comes the Sun” 8. Talking Heads — “Burning Down the House” 9. Jerry Lee Lewis — “Great Balls of Fire” 10. KISS — “Hotter Than Hell” [Photo: Dalle/Retna]

Weekend Rock List: Hot Songs

Today, our intrepid Rock Daily team is suffering through mid-ninety degree heat just so they can report back to you, our readers, all that’s going at this year’s Coachella Festival. As a tribute to our colleagues in Indio, California, this Rock List is dedicated to songs about being hot. Like Fahrenheit hot. Tell us your picks, and on Monday, depending on how sunburned we are, we’ll compile the lot and reveal the Readers’ Rock List: Hot Songs. Until then, here are our picks: Prince — “Hot Thing” Brian Eno — “Baby’s On Fire” The Doors — “Light My Fire” MC5 — “Motor City is Burning” Talking Heads — “Love –> Building on Fire”

Weekend Rock List: Dream Festival Lineup

In honor of the announcement of the Bonnaroo, Glastonbury and South by Southwest line-ups, this week we ask you, the reader/festival-goer, to tell us headliners would comprise your dream festival. Pick three reasonably plausible acts (you can’t go resurrecting Jerry Garcia or Jim Morrison, but you can reunite the Talking Heads), and on Monday, we’ll draw up the Readers’ Dream Festival Line-Up. Here are our picks: Led Zeppelin Radiohead Pavement The Smiths Bob Dylan
