Their grown-up new wave and real time stories captured the imagination of a mass audience in a way that many of their peers did not. The legacy of the Rats is based primarily on their remarkable street songs; if punk supposedly was all about the outsider, then they, the Rats, were on the outside of the outside. Dublin was not big or sexy then; the craic was not in the everyday lingua franca. As the Rats grew bigger, they seldom lost sight of those roots. The Rats are back, as brilliantly spiky, funny and irreverent as ever, and So Modern: The Boomtown Rats Collection celebrates that fact.\\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003eThis 1CD mixes some of the bands biggest hits including the number 1 smashes \\u2018I Don\\u2019t Like Mondays\\u2019 and \\u2018Rat Trap\\u2019 with some of the bands deeper album tracks and is a fantastic introduction to a group with an incredible legacy.\u003cp\u003e1.
