"The Age Of Plastic" is the debut studio album by British synth-pop duo The Buggles, released on CD format by Island Records. This groundbreaking album, originally launched in 1980, features the iconic hit single "Video Killed the Radio Star," which became a global sensation and was famously the first music video ever played on MTV. The record showcases innovative electronic sounds and catchy melodies that defined an era of new wave music. Other standout tracks include "Living in the Plastic Age" and "Elstree," each reflecting themes of technology and modernity with clever lyricism and futuristic production. The Buggles, formed by Trevor Horn and Geoff Downes, are celebrated for their pioneering role in shaping early '80s pop music through their use of synthesizers and imaginative songwriting. Their influence extends beyond this album; both members went on to achieve further success?Horn as a renowned producer for acts like Frankie Goes to Hollywood and Seal, while Downes joined progressive rock bands such as Yes and Asia. Island Records is a legendary label known for its diverse roster spanning genres from reggae to rock to pop. Founded in 1959 by Chris Blackwell, Island has been home to influential artists including Bob Marley & The Wailers, U2, Grace Jones, Amy Winehouse, among many others. Its commitment to innovation has made it one of the most respected names in music history.

The Buggles definió la decada de los ochenta casi en su totalidad. Íconos en la mezcla de la electrónica, el pop y la vanguardia. Sin dudas, su mejor trabajo.
