Wall of Voodoo Song Lyrics

Wall Of Voodoo was a Los Angeles new wave band active from 1977-1988 who crafted a distinctive sound blending punk energy, synthesizers, spaghetti western themes, and Stan Ridgway's deadpan vocals. Their biggest hit "Mexican Radio" became an MTV staple and new wave classic, while their Johnny Cash cover of "Ring Of Fire" showcased their ability to reimagine familiar material through their quirky, cinematic lens. Albums like "Call Of The West" captured the band's unique fusion of americana and synthesizer-driven post-punk, influencing countless alternative acts. Though they disbanded in 1988, Wall Of Voodoo's theatrical approach to new wave and their exploration of American cultural imagery left a lasting mark on alternative rock.
