Review

A somewhat haphazardly assembled retrospective of '80s pop, Living in Oblivion contains not only classic new wave cuts, but also features several MTV hits from the mid-'80s and radio hits from the end of the decade. While there are some great songs on every volume, each disc is wildly inconsistent; only the first disc is somewhat coherent. Nevertheless, Living in Oblivion captures the fractured mainstream of the decade quite well, and manages to include some classic pop songs along the way. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, Rovi
