	Oingo Boingo - Music Downloads - Online
		Bio: Although Oingo Boingo was often compared to Devo throughout their career (due to both bands' affinity for quirky new wave, goofy stage acts, and most obviously, peculiar yet intriguing band names), Oingo Boingo never obtained the mainstream success that Devo did.
		Oingo Boingo started not as a traditional group per se, as they were originally put together in the '70s by movie director Richard Elfman, who needed music for a whacked-out, John Waters-esque flick he was working on, called Forbidden Zone.
		With Elfman primarily focusing on film composing by this point, Oingo Boingo was laid to rest in 1995 after a farewell performance at L.A.'s Universal Amphitheatre, which was issued a year later as a CD and video, appropriately titled Farewell.

	Boingo
		The names "Boingo", "Oingo Boingo", "Mystic Knights", and "The Mystic Knights Of The Oingo Boingo" are all synonymous (essentially the longer the name, the older the reference); On occasion they have also used the alias "The Clowns of Death" (usually for private or "secret" shows).
		Originally known as the Mystic Knights of The Oingo Boingo, the name was shortened to Oingo Boingo in 1980 for their first album release.
		It would be more accurate to call it a "dissolution." Boingo's end is not the result of an argument or misunderstanding, it was simply "time." The guys decided to go out with a bang, giving the fans one last chance to show their support at Boingo's traditional "Halloween Bash" (Halloween season 1995).

		The introduction to Boingo's first track, "Insanity," sounds like an unused cut from the Batman motion picture theme, shuffling into an angry and eerie rebellion against Christianity, right wing mentality ("years of evolution and we get Danny Quayle"), and media.
		Not quite a greatest-hits album and not quite a live album, Oingo Boingo celebrates not quite a decade of existence with the peculiar double album Boingo Alive.
		Oingo Boingo have shortened their name to the more direct "Boingo," but their music hasn't changed.

		This eight-piece LA outfit (with a three-man horn section) started out trying to be a West Coast answer to XTC and Devo, but suffered from a surplus of studied wackiness/quirkiness and managed to hide solid cleverness behind overproduction and hamminess.
		When not pushing pressurized dance rock, Oingo Boingo revert to their previously established lighter style, and the horns play it subtle rather than brassy.
		Dispersing rumors of nonexistence, Oingo Boingo returned with their least obnoxious record yet.

		To sum Boingo up, it was a great place for Oingo Boingo to stop making albums (not because they were bad at it) but because it was apparent both Elfman already fell off on a where the feel of OB was more like Batman than Boingo.

		From my perspective, this is where Oingo Boingo grew into a less commercialized band who desired more of a limited audience.
		It needs to be stressed, that even at their less distinctive, Oingo Boingo ran circles around their musical contemporaries, distiguished by an unmistakable sound that was part tribal, part big band, part new wave quirk, spiced up with a twisted dark irony that was lead singer/songwriter Danny Elfman's trademark.
		So my ideas of Boingo are based on this album and "Skeletons in the Closet" mostly, because they were the first ones I ever heard.

	Dead Man's Party by Oingo Boingo CD
		By the mid-'80s, new wave was long dead and gone, yet somehow this didn't stop Oingo Boingo from continuing their quirky horn-rock stylings with the minimum accommodation made to commercial realities.
		The single "Weird Science," the title theme of a John Hughes movie, was Oingo Boingo's most commercially successful effort, but it's one of the weaker cuts here.
		OINGO BOINGO should be renowned world wide as one of the greatest rock acts of all time but unfortunetly they were touted as "ecclectic & quirky" by many critics.

		The group Oingo Boingo was once a party favorite, a cult dish for outcasts and pop-punksters, a Halloween night treasure.
		With their previous album Dark at the End of the Tunnel they showed signs of slowing down, becoming a bit more thoughtful and age weary.
		With Boingo they have completely dissipated every ounce of youthful banter and concocted an album that would fit neatly between the shelves of Nine Inch Nails and Marilyn Manson.
