The only thing I really liked about the 80s was the indy and black music scene up until the 1984. If I had to pick bands just in punk and New Wave:

B-52s (surf-punk era)
Psychedelic Furs
The Clash
Romeo Void
Killing Joke
Marshall Crenshaw (50s throwback rockabilly)
Human League
Falco (the German hits that didn't crossover)
The Cure
The Pretenders
Klaus Nomi

It was mainly the grundgy, dirty guitar sound a lot of these groups leaned on. If you want a couple examples of this guitar sound, then "Rock Lobster" by the B-52s and "Rock the Casbah" by The Clash.
