Flashback Friday: Jimmy & The Boys - Products Of Your Mind
"We are the children of the age of desperation"
Mix Scissor Sisters with Marilyn Manson and you've got the weird style that was Jimmy Boys. An Australian new wave act with two releases in 1980 and 1981, the group was fronted by Ignatius Jones, who was quite a controversial figure in his day. They had their biggest hit in 1981 with a cover of Split Endz's They Won't Let My Girlfriend Talk To Me, but I prefer this punkier, edgier, way-over-the-top track from their first album. I could imagine this track being used in The Rocky Horror Picture Show. It's definitely a theme song to this band, describing them perfectly! And the video? Wow.
