Interesting.... I need to hear most of these albums.
In fact I haven't even heard of a lot of those artists. The Fall, Gang of Four and Joy Division are all fuckin good bands but I haven't heard any of the albums u mentioned here.

I'm no expert on post-punk so can't offer a top 20, however I would say:
PiL - Metal Box Pere Ubu - The Modern Dance Boys Next Door (Birthday Party) Gang Of Four - Solid Gold This reminds me that I must get and read Rip It Up and Start Again

I need to listen to this Blurt album more. What's with No Wave stuff, not your thing or not post punk? Don't know if I would file This Heat or Throbbing Gristle under post punk/new wave, but who cares.

What's with No Wave stuff, not your thing or not post punk? for me No Wave was all attitude good fun, but most of the music was utter crap New Wave had attitude as well, but it was of the "we can do whatever we like" type, and they just gone on with it a lot of this music sounds quite remarkable even 30 years on littleNemo Wrote:Don't know if I would file This Heat or Throbbing Gristle under post punk/new wave, but who cares.

statto Wrote:for me no wave was all attitude i tend to disagree. of course there was lots of crap (as always) but also some great stuff. as much as i like unknown pleasures, i'd prefer some mars or dna. and there are still no wave influences in new music i love today, so i'd say it had some value. statto Wrote:new wave had attitude as well, but it was of the "we can do whatever we like" type, and they just gone on with it i demand an "obscure post punk" mix ![]()

my brother is the new wave specialist, he's got way more than me- i just listen to Die Kreuzen's first lp a lot, and other one-off hardcore masterpieces.. i like the period a couple years after new and no wave, just when the Reagan alzheimer's was kicking in strong and things were getting nutty and damaged-sounding.

Statto Wrote:Kontra Wrote:No. Early Sonic Youth (especially Sonic Death) would come under No Wave I can see exactly what you're saying, though I would say that because they came from the Glenn Branca school of thought and that they were focused on creating "non music" with a punk sentimentality that they could be classed as No Wave. Bear in mind, I am only thinking of very early Sonic Youth.
