I have Warsaw, Closer, Unknown Pleasures and the rest, they weren't "punk" IMHO

. Well, maybe back then, as there wasn't really a proper category to put them in?

I disagree that Goth music "sucks"

. Lots of great bands, not everyone ripped off JD. Bauhaus, the Cure, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Lords of the new church, March Violets, etc are all great too. Its the stuff past 92-ish that "sucked".

By the way: She's lost Control is a fantastic JD jam too.
