I met a cute girl at Sonic Youth in london...and we talked extensively about The Slits. Doesn't happen everyday, it was cool. Excellent band.
right-track is 100% correct about Joy Division. They were actually one of the hardest post-punk bands for me to get into, which is weird as they're generally a "gateway" band...I was into Pere Ubu and The Pop Group, but Joy Division I'd discarded as boring. Big mistake. I put on Unknown Pleasures one day and was converted. I was in a club last night and they played Love Will Tear Us Apart, and while it's not my fav JD song it reminded me just how great they are. I think Closer is currently my favourite Joy Division album, but everything rules.
