I had that thought about a few letters too! A hard choice between Swell Maps, The Smiths, The Slits, or Sugar.
Ditto for Television, Talking Heads, Thee Oh Sees, or Tegan & Sara

This thread is even worse than the eighties survivor one. It's sick.

If you really wanted to make it challenging we shouldn't repeat bands previously mentioned.

Aside from many of the other awesome bands on your list I love that you included Vreid. I've only heard a little of them, but what I've heard is pretty fantastic.

That's right, the 'S' was really tricky with the Stranglers, the Smiths, the Stooges, the Sex Pistols, so on, as well as the 'D' and 'P' and with some letters you almost have no choice
