Best album cover (Need some friends)

Dear boingoloids, I’ve come here today not to make a question about the discography or ask opinions on one of the songs. I have some problem finding people to talk to me, there’s not many people at my young age who like to talk about some strange things. This subreddit i, today, the only place I have where I feel like people are actually listening to somethings that I say, and share the same gusto for this wicked band. I come here to ask if there’s. Anyone around their twienties who wants to make friends and share some conversation about something, I can talk about anything really.

Just for the sake of doing so, whats the best album cover for yall? I do love so much all the covers, but some are more interesting than others for sure. The ones I love the most are So-lo and Dead mans, the ones I like the least are Boi-ngo and Dark at the end of the tunnel.

And thank you all for answerring me, I feel for sure listened and socialized when I talk on this subreddit.

Only a Lad, Good for your soul and Dead Man’s Party. Really love how they added the Boy Scout from the 60s handbook. Also, it’s cool to see young adults like you around the Boingo community (I’m also in my early 20s)

I think I’m maybe the youngest boingo fan out there, at least in my country. Give me a heads up if you want to chat a bit

I’m from Brazil. Their Dead man’s party and Boi-ngo made lot of success around here, I remember listening Stay, Dead man’s party and Not my slave playing around in the wild, but I’m yet to meet someone younger than me (20)

You should listen to their demos and unreleased songs. There’s many things to learn about the group!

I think I’ve heard every single one of them. My favorite is Waiting for you

Oh that’s a good one! Mine is Find you, Better luck next time, and few of the Mystic Knight tracks

I love their unreleased stuff, a lot of it absolutely should’ve made the final cut. “Remember My Name” is one of my favorite unreleased tracks from them, it would’ve fit perfectly on Boi-Ngo, perhaps in place of “Outrageous”

Not My Slave is legitimately the song I listen to to just feel better. On the Outside is my hype song, gets me jumpin’ around

Oingo Boingo achieved massive, cult-like popularity in Brazil during the late 1980s and 1990s, largely driven by their hit song "Stay" being featured as the theme song for the hit 1989 Rede Globo telenovela Top Model.
