Best Rock Album - 1985?

Phil Collins?
With the exception of Little Creatures and Brothers In Arms, 1985 is pretty meh for me. But those two records were huge for me in college. Huge I tell ya.

New Fish
He was the drummer in a progressive rock band who went on to great success as a solo artist. A lot of people liked him. I don't, but am trying to be objective.

I've got two tickets to Iron Maiden baby
I might pick Dire Straits or Talking Heads or even Tears For Fears here; very solid stuff but several '84/'86 backup choices I'd pick first.

They censor the "brings a gun to school" line on the radio now. In a few years, IROC will be cancelled[/s] on account of the 11MPG.

Whenever I get around to seeding an best album tournament based on these polls, the weak years likely only see one entry whereas the montser years could see 2 or even 3 bids.
Another great album from The Cure
The Head on the Door
Fuck Yella no love for these hair metal masterpieces?
The lack of hair bands on this list is insulting.

As it should be.
Talking Heads best work was behind them by 85, but the other choices suck.
I don't think its their best work, but I still really enjoy Little Creatures. Their last good album in my opinion. To @dnc 's point, not a strong year though overall. Probably have to take the winner of the year by the auto bid rules and that's it. But that would be a low seed.

Since I couldn't really pick and I'm a little ashamed I forgot about this, I'll go ahead and give my vote to a Seattle product.
Fuck there's some classic 80's hair right there.

Nancy was hot.as.balls in the 80's. Ann was pretty hot too when she wasn't fat.
And Bellevue isn't Seattle, btw.
