Eagulls - Ullages. The whole album sounds like 80-82 Cure.  This is the finale "White Lie Lullabies"
 

 

[Fastnbulbous]

L.A.'s Second Still, who debuted last year with S/T full length, have two EPs. Part Time Punks is live in studio, including a For Against cover. Think Siouxsie & the Banshees and Comsat Angels.



Speaking of For Against, there's 15 days left in their Pledge campaign for the 90s albums reissues, and are just at 64% of goal. I hate to see it fail!

Also i love this thread. Bauhaus and Dead Can Dance... Haven't listened to those in years. Right now I'm rediscovering "In the flat field"

Not split hairs but I would definitely put Dead Can Dance in a different category.

If we are going to talk Bauhaus then you have to also mention Tones On Tale (Go!, etc.), Peter Murphy (Love Hysteria, Deep) and Love and Rockets (Seventh Dream of Teenage Heaven, Express and Earth Sun Moon).

A couple more I have seen mentioned:

• The Jesus and Mary Chain (Psychocandy, Darklands, Automatic)
• The Church (Of Skins and Heart, Starfish)
• Modern English (After The Snow)

Killing Joke (2003) . Killing Joke

We had them before in the thread and this is one of their best albums. They tread the line between hard rock, post-punk and industrial rock nicely. And they don't care, whether their music might be disturbing at times. The designation (2003) is there, because it is their second self-titled album.

The Jesus and Mary Chain (Psychocandy, Darklands, Automatic)

Psychocandy, I love the album. There is also a great live version recorded at Barrowlands.

 

[soundofsingle]

Fad Gadget, or anything of that early Mute sound.
Lo-fi, cold, dark, borderline industrial.



(there's also an excellent BBC documentary on this period in music, available on YouTube, called Synth Britannia)

Dedicated to you,I used this song all the time in my first DJ Set 1980-81



I am very pleased to read your contributions and I would like to greet all of you fans of post punk new wave music I was in my twenties (now I am 59) when this musical genre was around I followed it for about five years I own several vinyl records from that era (1980-1985) both 12" singles, EPs, extended versions etc. and CDs and I have seen many concerts especially when I lived in London for about a year in that period. I am very pleased to read the your interventions and I wish you good continuation I have been listening to electronic music for many years now.

Don’t Fall Asleep . Haunt Me

This is from 2022. Nice to see some decent post-punk / darkwave music still being released. Haunt Me don’t break new ground here, but update very audible influences from the classics with a modern sound. Enjoyable and danceable!

Perusing the forum and saw this thread.

Listening to PIL - "This is What You Want" just now.

I'd add The Stranglers to the post-punk list.

[Born2Cuddle]

That entire album is an absolute classic masterpiece, though I really cant listen to Mexican Radio anymore because I have just heard it way too much.

Their cover of Ring of Fire is fantastic, and I recommend turning it up to 11.
