    What did Dire Straits do to their amps to get that sound?

    Song from the American Psycho

    That New Order's song reminded me of this: YouTube - ABC - The Look Of Love: Video And to me , American Psycho (the book, although it was published in the 90's) and 80's music are definitely linked.
