They're not my favorite band from that subgenre but they're by no means a bad band

Oingo Boingo better than Devo? Good grief.

XTC is much better but the best post-punk band?

No.

Or because "I can't understand the vocals therefore the music is trash"

"It isn't music if it doesn't have lyrics. Songs need lyrics man."

I've heard that a few times. Always amuses me.

First they said that to Beethoven, then they said that to the second Viennese school, then they said it to the jazz guys, then they said it to the Darmstadt school, then they said it to rock 'n roll, then they said it to (any incarnation of) metal, then they said it to hip hop, the list goes on, go cry me a river :rofl:
