Whilst a lot of the bands that followed had only just stopped playing punk and decided to ride the wave, the structured song patterns and dynamics of the mid-60s sat perfectly with their spiky pop nous. A few like Secret Affair, The Chords, and The Lambrettas would even entertain hits. But the mod revival was somewhat derided as the \u201980s took hold and many of the bands split. The movement was still huge though, and even when it fell out of favour, the UK still had thousands of teenage disciples, all needing new bands. These acts played scooter runs and mod events to eager fans, some continued the flame that was yet to be put out from the legacy of The Jam, others like The Prisoners offered a more accurate portrayal of the \u201960s, and as the \u201980s took hold the essence of psychedelia could be heard&#8230; plus a few, like The Truth, even entered the charts. By 1985 the whole thing began to dwindle, as both the bands and the mod teens discovered new things. Mod would however continue to influence subsequent generations, from the pill popping ravers and soulful acid jazzers to Britpop&#8217;s \u201960s affectations. Today young bands still in and barely out of their teens are drawing on the 1979 era wholesale, whether that&#8217;s the corporate Jam-loving The Molotovs or Sharp Pins, who even recorded the entire <em>Mods Mayday \u201979<\/em> album.<\/p>\n<span class=\"synved-social-container synved-social-container-share\"><a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-24 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-facebook nolightbox\" data-provider=\"facebook\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"Share on Facebook\" href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fshindig-magazine.com%2Findex.php%3Frest_route%3D%252Fwp%252Fv2%252Fposts%252F7595&#038;t=EXCLUSIVE%20SHINDIG%21%20QOBUZ%20PLAYLIST%20%2331%3A%20NO%20WAY%20OUT%20%E2%80%93%20MOD%3A%20THE%20SECOND%20WAVE%201979-85&#038;s=100&#038;p&#091;url&#093;=https%3A%2F%2Fshindig-magazine.com%2Findex.php%3Frest_route%3D%252Fwp%252Fv2%252Fposts%252F7595&#038;p&#091;images&#093;&#091;0&#093;=https%3A%2F%2Fshindig-magazine.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2026%2F04%2FScreenshot-2026-04-28-at-15.06.11.png&#038;p&#091;title&#093;=EXCLUSIVE%20SHINDIG%21%20QOBUZ%20PLAYLIST%20%2331%3A%20NO%20WAY%20OUT%20%E2%80%93%20MOD%3A%20THE%20SECOND%20WAVE%201979-85\" style=\"font-size: 0px;width:24px;height:24px;margin:0;margin-bottom:5px;margin-right:5px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Facebook\" title=\"Share on Facebook\" class=\"synved-share-image synved-social-image synved-social-image-share\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" style=\"display: inline;width:24px;height:24px;margin: 0;padding: 0;border: none;box-shadow: none\" src=\"https:\/\/shindig-magazine.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/social-media-feather\/synved-social\/image\/social\/regular\/48x48\/facebook.png\" \/><\/a><a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-24 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-twitter nolightbox\" data-provider=\"twitter\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"Share on Twitter\" href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/share?url=https%3A%2F%2Fshindig-magazine.com%2Findex.php%3Frest_route%3D%252Fwp%252Fv2%252Fposts%252F7595&#038;text=New%20post%20on%20our%20site\" style=\"font-size: 0px;width:24px;height:24px;margin:0;margin-bottom:5px;margin-right:5px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"twitter\" title=\"Share on Twitter\" class=\"synved-share-image synved-social-image synved-social-image-share\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" style=\"display: inline;width:24px;height:24px;margin: 0;padding: 0;border: none;box-shadow: none\" src=\"https:\/\/shindig-magazine.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/social-media-feather\/synved-social\/image\/social\/regular\/48x48\/twitter.png\" \/><\/a><a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-24 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-mail nolightbox\" data-provider=\"mail\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"Share by email\" href=\"mailto:?subject=EXCLUSIVE%20SHINDIG%21%20QOBUZ%20PLAYLIST%20%2331%3A%20NO%20WAY%20OUT%20%E2%80%93%20MOD%3A%20THE%20SECOND%20WAVE%201979-85&#038;body=New%20post%20on%20our%20site:%20https%3A%2F%2Fshindig-magazine.com%2Findex.php%3Frest_route%3D%252Fwp%252Fv2%252Fposts%252F7595\" style=\"font-size: 0px;width:24px;height:24px;margin:0;margin-bottom:5px;margin-right:5px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"mail\" title=\"Share by email\" class=\"synved-share-image synved-social-image synved-social-image-share\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" style=\"display: inline;width:24px;height:24px;margin: 0;padding: 0;border: none;box-shadow: none\" src=\"https:\/\/shindig-magazine.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/social-media-feather\/synved-social\/image\/social\/regular\/48x48\/mail.png\" \/><\/a><\/span>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We\u2019re very excited to be media partners with the truly unique online streaming platform and download store\u00a0Qobuz.
