all awesome songs though I prefer Orgy's remake of Blue Monday over the original.

 

[Pudding Time]

I'm not keen on Orgy. Plus I like the retro electronic sound from the original.


PS. You didn't have to quote the whole post dude.

This might sound sexist but they just don't fit the part for me..

This might sound sexist but they just don't fit the part for me..

that was the beauty of it,it was a revolution in feminism as well as music.we went from cauc rock to girls picking up guitars and spitting as good as the blokes.so disturbing after the seventies keeping women down as groupies but never performers,the slits were actually attacked walking through london at the beginning ,it was such a stark political cry.

[debbie t]

Joy Division & Siouxsie and the Banshees, yeah they're New Wave.

Penetration is a punk band though.
