    Dude, synthesizers were not new in 1984. Also that was a cover song Motley Crue did. Originally released Brownsville Station in early 70s.

      They existed and were more of a new wave instrument at the time, but not heavily used in rock like that.

      I was unaware of Brownsville Station when I was eleven.

      Sorry to have failed your class professor.

      We couldn’t all be Jack Black in high fidelity at that age.

        Synths were used so much in 70s rock (Moog) that it wasn’t uncommon for albums to have a ‘no synthesizers’ disclaimer.

          And the synthesizers in the eighties were nothing like moogs

          Irrelevant I guess. I was casually reliving a memory from when I was a child, but there’s always got to be a pedant to further solidify my general withdrawal from society because I’m clearly not satisfactorily intelligent enough for it.
