The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

I do a weekly obscure 80's video on my blog, and thought you might like to see this weeks selection- it's Stan Ridgeway's song about a big Marine... named Camouflage-

How is it that I have never heard this before? I was a huge "Wall of Voodoo" fan.
Thanks for sharing.

Glad everyone enjoys the clip!
The album is The Big Heat- 1986. It's a few years between the time he left WoV, so it was pretty easily missed. It's a great album. Actually as much as I love the song Camouflage, Drive She Said is the best song on the album in my opinion.

Yeah- I'm a total record nerd- a musical moron twin.
