Changelog: *Fixed Post-Punk Revival

(Any further suggestions for bands that aren't complete **** would be welcome.)

Would the new The Pop Group album count? Fits in with the sound and time, even if TPG is the real OG.

Post-Punk Revival is kind of it's own thing though. I don't know about you but I don't hear any Strokes elements on Citizen Zombie.

I suppose. I kind of take that album as an old band's take on what the new bands are doing, and it reminds me a lot of what modern post punk sounds like. In that way it's kind of an outsider's perspective of what reviving original post punk would sound like, not to mention that post punk is ambiguous as all hell, so wouldn't the revival be similar? Plus I guess if you wanted to be a semantic douchebag (I've got you covered, don't worry), they are a literal revival of the classic era of post punk. I honestly don't know much of the genre and have only heard a little more than half of the list, but I just wanted to float Citizen Zombie if you were looking for something good, as you had requested.

Not denying it's a great post-punk album, but I always saw the revival movement as a genre of it's own: it's definitely more streamlined (radio-oriented) and more garage/dance influenced. That's what seperates a band like Protomartyr and Interpol.

I think of it as Post-Proto-Garage-Post-Punk.

:x Hard decision. Citizen Zombie is definitely their absolute worst album.

It's like picking your least favourite brand of caviar.

Caviar is overrated. I see your point.

Frownland 04-16-2016 08:27 AM

I've never tried it. I wonder how human caviar tastes.
