I think it should be alphabetized so it doesn't look like The Cure is the number one band of the 80s band even before we begin. Also if the "ordered list" is used ([LIST=1 ][/LIST ] ) it would make it easier if to add or subtract bands names, without subsequently change all the following numbers after a name is added/subtracted. (NB Bauhaus taking off the list is only used as an example.)

  2. Birthday Party

I love Mission Of Burma but Entertainment! is a real contender for my favourite album eer so Gang of Four win.

I am not going to add REM or New Order. I don't want to get into super bands that crowd out the little guy. If I open the door for them, than I have to open the door to the Depeche Mode, U2 and the whole New Wave world.

Husker Du falls into the same camp, if I open the door to them, than I have to open the door to the Dead Kennedys and the whole world of punk.
I highly disagree with all of this. I don't know why The Dead Milkmen are included if we're trying to exclude Punk Rock. But it's your game so cool :)

I'm just not that into Goth. I can appreciate some Bauhaus but I could never really dig Sisters of Mercy. Such an awful band name too.

bob. 05-12-2014 06:28 AM
I've always assumed their name came from the Leonard Cohen song

thats it James.....I'm coming to Scotland to rat your hair, throw some thick eyeliner on you, and take you to an Alien Sex Fiend show

James 05-12-2014 06:52 AM
That sounds awesome I'll welcome it.
