Some of those first wave new wave bands didn't hold up so well for me. The Police sound kinda trite these days, The Pretenders - a few songs still sound okay, but generally Meh! Even Oingo Boingo, which surprises me because I used to LOVE those guys, but I think that is more because they were so good live. Talking Heads - for me, everything after Remain in Light is pretty disposable. Devo - first two albums still sound good but after that, ZZZzZZZ....
I also went through a period where I felt like I had 'outgrown' Rush, but it didn't last. What was I thinking?!?
