There's this flowchart which is pretty good imo

Juju, Tinderbox, The Scream, and A Kiss In The Dreamhouse are my favorites, but you really can't go wrong with Siouxsie.

...

not sure if it's pleb-tier or goat, i like it tho

>tfw they don't even like their own best song

Song From The Edge of The World is GOAT. Shame they dislike it.

are there any modern bands that sound like peak-cure?

This might be the greatest rock record of all time.

So might this.

Behold! A true patrician!!


Can't believe this hasn't been posted. Gothic Rock extraordinaire.

The Soft Moon
youtu.be/jILV2bOemmg

i meant disintegration-era cure.
nice pick tho.

should include some 80's depeche mode in new wave and bowie's berlin trilogy in albums that inspired post-punk

youtube.com/watch?v=ty3XSdCWVAI

This.
And Power, Corruption, Lies, and Movement, and Low-life, and Brotherhood.

Peak-New Order was GOAT.

Anything from This Heat, Public Image Ltd., Y from Pop Group (I would say anything from Pop Group but the album they just released last year was absolute dogshit)
Some of the shit on there isn't even post punk though... Foetus, Devo, Minutemen? Not post punk. Fucking Elvis Costello? Get this shit outta my face

The fact that this chart has both Mass and Rema Rema... but no Wolfgang Press or In Camera tells me that it's doo-doo.

which albums do you recommend? i listened to some of their stuff weeks ago and some of it was rly good but the rest was kind of bad, forgot the name of the album tho

Deeper
Zeros

This set on KEXP is on point too.

Devo is definitely post-punk.
That chart is for weenies, though.

I sorta like them, but everything's pretty samey across the 3-or-so albums I've listened to. Only a few stand-out tracks on each. They have potential if they'd change it up a bit.

Devo is literally as new-wave as it gets, you mong

...

new wave and post-punk are inextricably linked.

>no Wolfgang Press

I like you. Probably one of the most underrated bands I can think of.

Shut That Door
youtu.be/prVeP-D90jA

And this thread needs some Chrome. Sup Forums always spergs to Half Machine Lip Moves but personally I think their later stuff is much better.

youtu.be/yFP5zwwu3Nc

rec me something like PCL and Substance pls.

My favorite (and in my opinion best) Christian Death album.
Literally nothing else sounds like this album. So good.

later PIL is extremely underrated
lydon got fucking john mcgeoch in the band for a bunch of albums, they're deserving of attention for that alone

youtube.com/watch?v=79qwrzz2aws

Church that.

I've always loved this album.
The songwriting and the production just meld so perfectly.

The Durutti Column
This Mortal Coil
and Dif Juz

Killing Joke single released in between Fire Dances and Night Time. Guitar work here kicks my ass.

...

geordie walker is up there with keith levene and bruce gilbert for me
absolutely one of the best and most inimitable musicians in all of post-punk

youtube.com/watch?v=Rn880E-u6E4

in what way? I know what you're saying, I have a feeling, but I want you to explain it to me

>Dif Juz

Mah Afro American brother!

Imagine how differently the Cure would be remembered if, after they broke up on the tour for that album, they stayed broken up and never got back together. The Top and Wild Mood Swings wouldn't have happened but neither would Kiss Me Kiss Me Kiss Me or Disintegration. This has been on my mind all day.

The Top is awesome.

>PERU NESH PERU NESH PERU NESH

That was fucking annoying. Great album though

theres also this version too with a bit more

>One Depeche Mode album
>It's Violator

Come the fuck on.

...

You mean they sound like a bunch of talentless hacks ripping off The Cure? Absolute shit band.

I thought What The World Needs Now was pretty darn good. Not the best PiL album or anything but still a good listen.

...

this is PIL was a respectable and dignified comeback as well

youtube.com/watch?v=HGs9-IONuAc

saw them live on that tour; they were unexpectedly fantastic
one of the most hypnotic concerts i've ever attended

>Ripping off The Cure
If they're ripping off anyone it would be Rick Agnew's Christian Death.

The Soft Moon wear their influences on their sleeve. I'll give you that. But to call them talentless hacks, that's a bit much. I'd refer you to to see how "talentless" they aren't.

plsssss.

Another essential in that same vein

For those that still think early U2 isn't Post Punk

>early U2 isn't Post Punk

Isn't this just a meme? Early U2 goes hand in hand with the likes of Echo & The Bunnymen/Joy Division/Low Life/The Sound etc.

Agreed. That's what I meant with my post. *rolls eyes

Add Big Country to your list.

>Isn't this just a meme?

You'd be surprised. I'm not huge into U2 but I heard one of their songs listening back to an old John Peel show one time and it was pretty good.

How has no one posted this yet.

...

Nephilim are alright but I honestly always thought that the main reason that band ended up becoming as successful as they did was because of Andrew Eldritch's unwillingness to release new music and people being so hungry for new Sisters Of Mercy records that they didn't mind if those records weren't actually made by the Sisters Of Mercy. FOTN were basically a pastiche act.

Ehm, no.

Great album.
Their first album is also excellent.

...

There's no other band that sounds quite like Malice Mizer. Most people would probably choose Merveilles, but Merveilles is more of an art rock album rather than straight goth rock.
I'll choose Memoire, it's the most pure goth rock-sounding album they produced, and my favorite.
Bara no seidou is also amazing as a goth album, but it's not so much rock as it is full blown gothic orchestra/opera
