What is post punk? Nobody's sure, but we know what it isn't. Beware the tut-and-moan of the pseudo-intellectual.

What is post punk? Nobody's sure, but we know what it isn't. Beware the tut-and-moan of the pseudo-intellectual.

Memo: We've all heard Joy Division. If you wanna post JD, make sure it's rare or live. Same goes for New Order, The Smiths, The Cure, The Talking Heads, Public Image Ltd, Bauhaus- any of the usual suspects on your run-of-the-mill 'Essential Guide To Post-Punk' primer. Essential, yeah, we get it, yawn.

*** IF YOU POST ANY SONG BY THE KILLERS, YOU WILL BE BANNED ***

NO BLOGSPAM. WE REPEAT: NO BLOGSPAM.

Any site selling albums/tracks will be classed SPAM. Don't even consider posting an ad site that's your own band. The fig leaf of "name your own price" is not enough. Also, no crowd-funding links.

If your post isn't showing, maybe it's in our spam filter. It's also possible we removed it. What were you doing posting A-Ha anyway?

Don't post direct-download links. There are legal reasons. And malware reasons.

Anyway, make sure you watch "Upside Down: The Creation Records Story" or maybe "24 Hour Party People" but do what you want, we're nihilists

Little Bands 79-80 (obscure Oz post punk)

Amazing, totally necessary reissue of the Melbourne Australia Little Bands scene, which existed for a very short time period where people would form very short lived post punk, no wave and weird raggedy experimental groups. Some bands associated w this scene continued on, but many were a flash (which was partly the point). Now, after decades, we get some archival documents of what happened…

Albums with the energy of "Like a song" by U2

Hi, I heard WAR by U2 for the first time a couple of days ago. I am totally opssesed with the enery "Like a Song" has. I like that kind of energy and sound. It reminds me of The Stooges Funhouse. Can you recommend me more albums that has that kind of energy? Thanks

What do you think are the prettiest post punk songs?

I have a need of beauty in my life. What songs in the realm of post punk do you think are genuinely pretty? Obviously there are bands like Cocteau Twins and Durutti Column that this could be filled with, so give me some deeper cuts if possible.

Amazing local post punk band I just recently learned about. Did some visuals for one of their live shows, I feel so proud they're from my city!
