Anchored by the prophetic, MTV-launching smash hit 'Video Killed the Radio Star', The Buggles' debut album is a brilliantly crafted, highly melodic synth-pop concept record. 'The Age of Plastic' peers into a remarkably futuristic, mechanical world, utilizing intricate production to underscore deeply melancholic, anxious themes regarding the intersection of humanity and modern technology.
