decade of despair

I grew up in the 80's. the decade where we feared that we would end civilization and we would have to rebuild technology from scratch. Fear of annihilation permeated pop culture.

Music, the Clash -london calling

Time zone - world destruction

Frankie goes to Hollywood- Two tribes go to war

Killing Joke - Eighties

TV, the day after

movies, Mad Max

even in pop songs

information society

cartoons, Thundarr
