u2

U2

The Fall, Wire, Chrome and Killing Joke in that specific order.

Conceptually: The Fall
Technically: Wire

What's essential post punk core?

Interpol

U2

U2

U2

Siouxie

Fucking memes.
Talking Heads

>not saying Joy Division

okay, contrarians

The Chameleons > Joy Division

the chameleons

this desu

Talking Cat Bob pls go

>Yanks

Dont forget about Magazine, Sup Forums

Complicated question.

If you mean in terms of making it into a viable popular music genre... U2... The Cure... Talking Heads...

In terms of playing good rock n' rawl muzak but updating it... Joy Division... Killing Joke... Mission of Burma... The Fall...

If you mean in terms of breaking down genre barriers with a punk attitude about it and sorta reinventing prog... This Heat... Devo... PiL... Pere Ubu...

Pere Ubu

Pylon.

>All of music has been shaped by this one concert

My favorite.

How the hell did Killing Joke go from post-punk and goth rock to sounding like Ministry

Lack of integrity and jumping on the popularity bandwagon?

Pandemic is a great album

>Sounding like Ministry??

What album are you talking about? Hosannas?

Are Television post punk?

I mean pandemonium lol

best track

Great answer actually

to be honest, this...

youtube.com/watch?v=c1tZOlUlRI8

youtube.com/watch?v=MysRJe7O73g

is a pretty logical evolution of this...

there's a reason why one of justin broadrick's early bands which would eventually evolve into godflesh took their name from a killing joke song

nah, that was the two new wave albums that they put out in the mid-80s(one of which the band disavowed and the other which wasn't intended to be a sellout pop album but became one when the record label brought in a second producer and had him remix the already recorded and mixed album for the sake of making it more commercially viable)

in the top 10 rock albums for the 80s

Nice to see Killing Joke get some love around here. Great fucking band.

Joy Division perfected the sound with Closer. Every post-punk album after that is simply derivative and inferior, though not necessarily bad.

Oh my fucking god.
And hero please

>implying U2 weren't post-punk

The Pop Group you fucking mongs

Public Image Ltd

lol no

siouxsie and the banshees or suicide

This Heat you stupid gits

Franz Ferdinand

women

this

Wire and This Heat.

this is too vague but either or all of the following:
>heads (tampered with the punk formula instrumentally to a degree where the music wholly embodies the literal meaning of "post-punk")
>joy division (the above, but more pertaining to the music's atmosphere)
>wire (best band)
>human league (one of the first and best to do the synth thing)

The Sound > The Chameleons > Joy Division

This Heat, The Pop Group, Pere Ubu the list goes on...

this is the correct answer

Finally a motherfucker who gets it.

The first three PiL records are the epitome of post-punk

Pop maru

they all sound the same desu

implying they wrote a better song then this youtu.be/3zo4JdTfDw0

Television you uncultured fucks

Fuck all you for not mentioning the most obvious answer.

Seems like a pretty good threeway distinction in postpunk, and your picks are very good overall. Good post.

this

Siouxsie and the Banshees

How is this even a question?

XTC

Elvis Costello

lolno, the chameleons is just interpol in the 80s

except Chameleons is at least fucking bearable

I think Joy Division perfected it in the very beginning, but I really really enjoy this album.
