Alan Vega's solo stuff is nice but it's kinda like if Ted Bundy went on to release Gamergate anti-feminist videos. Entertaining but god damn dude I was expecting so much more on the subject.

I'll check that dictionary, but in the meantime I'm impressed - as is everyone else in the world - by your eloquence, obvious accomplishments and success, and the evidence of your blazingly high intelligence.

The debut is pretty solid throughout

I'm opening my ledger and chalking up another good grace point for you, elph.

I love the Sound. Particularly their debut album and 'From the Lion's Mouth'. Although, they're definitely a post-punk band. I wish this place was more active so we could have a separate section for post-punk. The Sound wasn't an innovator, but they knew very well how to craft a great tune. It's unfortunate how Adrian Borland met his end though.



I think perhaps their most moving song though is 'Total Recall'.

Eh, I don't know. Maybe between proto-punk and punk, I'd agree. They classify The Stooges as proto-punk (and who else? -- the New York Dolls, Television, etc?), but is there reallly that much of a difference, sonically?

But, if I listen to the Pistols and Joy Division, there's a distinct difference there.

Pere Ubu exist to undermine this argument.

Yeah never forget that "punk" doesn't exist. It's a media term invented to put a certain group of artists into a box to sell the idea of their being one cohesive thing to an audience. The only real difference with punk is that it was a sort of spark point where, rather than just being a handful of artists connected only through influence, they were part of various scenes that were happening at the same time. "Punk" is just a snapshot of specific bands in a specific time period in the evolution of non-mainstream rock music. It doesn't actually have any inherent meaning except in deliberately drawing conclusions based on perceived similarities and interactions between the artists.
