"Eighties" is the true tale of the decade, that I always hear in my head
when I encounter low-lifes telling tales about the corporate mainstream
80's style and music. It's very common that the story of the underground
in the eighties isn't told, at least not properly.
So I don't think it's stinker at all, I really think the riff works. Some
of the 12" mixes were perhaps too timid and too long, but that's not
something to hanged up on I think. Just listen to the album mix or hop it.
