Eighth album from Oingo Boingo offers
rain-dance images, refreshing sound

“Dark at the end of the Tunnel”
brings an interesting sound from Oingo
Boingo for their 1985 album, which
included “Weird Science,” the theme
track of the movie of the same name.
“Dark’’starts off with “When the
Lights go Out.” This song combines
a very primitive-sounding drumbeat
with a grinding guitar, which makes
for a rough sound. The vocals have a
unique, repetitious, chanting quality
to them.
“Skin” is the second song on the
LP and probably is the best song on
the record. It has a mysterious sense
about it. The vocals are a mellow, low
harmony. The music behind the vo
cals is very simple and blends a laid
back drumbeat with a xylophone
sounding keyboard.
The song is about the armor that
people wear so that others can’t tell
what they really are like: “If you pull
away the skin, is there anybody there?”
Another song that captures an
innovative sound is ‘ ‘Run Away (The
Escape Song).” This song has a very
fast-paced rhythm. The music is great
to listen to - a ripping saxophone
backs thcchorus along with the quick,
steady rhythm of the guitar and drums.
Try to Believe is tne song uuu
wraps the album up. It has a great jazz
sound to it. The horn section leads the
rest of the instruments all the way
through the song. The horns sound
very similar to those found on Paul
Simon’s “Graceland.”
Listening to this album is quite
enjoyable. “Dark” conjures up im
ages of ancient rain dances, with some
of the chanting- type vocals, and pro
vides some modem and blues sounds
as well.
Danny Elfman, Boingo’s lead
vocalist, has done some solo work as
well. He has shown talent in back
ground music in such movies as
“Batman,” “Beetlejuice,” and
“Midnight Run.”
People who buy this album will be
impressed by its ever-present creativ
ity.
