are we confused here? new wave= skinny ties, 1979, kinda faggy side of punk, nu wave= record label?
Statto, I need some info about Subway Sect, that song on your CD is Lovesmilie

it's great isn't it. i used to have it on original 7" [Image: mohawk.gif]

but you only want to check the early stuff. i have a vic godard singles anthology and it moves into lounge pretty quickly.

these compilations (which i don't have) look worth getting though...

[url=]Twenty Odd Years[/url]
or the 1977-81 retrospective on rough trade

if you can find either of them Neutral
hjmmmmmm. im gonna do some new wave research from your list Statts!
lol what a wicked thread. You're gonna have to pm me if any of yers are on slsk. Got loads of this kinda thing (and the dodgy underground french stuff that came later)

As for me, I'm still obsessed with new beat :$

magnificent list Xyxthumbs

heading to the record store with some of these written down as soon as i get more money
may i add talking heads - more songs about buildings and food to the list? really good record and quite different to later (1980s) talking heads. the first talking heads album (77) is also really good.
