Frankie Goes to Hollywood - Welcome to the Pleasuredome (1984)
Manage episode 447448399 series 3467894
Welcome to the Pleasuredome by Frankie Goes to Hollywood, released in 1984, is an ambitious and theatrical debut album that blends new wave, synth-pop, and dance music with a bold, provocative aesthetic. Spanning over an hour, the double album features iconic hits like "Relax" and "Two Tribes," which challenged social norms and pushed boundaries with their suggestive lyrics and politically charged messages. The album's title track, a sprawling 13-minute epic, encapsulates the hedonistic, larger-than-life energy of the band. Welcome to the Pleasuredome became a defining statement of 80s pop culture and remains a symbol of flamboyance and rebellion.
