Gene Loves Jezebel

also, an English band that should have been big: Das Psycho Rangers

…or, Wall of Voodoo.
And of course the ever commical- Devo and The Surf Punks, ha.

Let us not forget “X”

Top of all NEW WAVE shit… the great “AIR SUPPLY” nothing beats that little ass curly hair vocals..

New Order is by far my number one.

No way could Echo and the Bunnymen be ranked ahead of them!!!

While the skills acclimatized to change them are certainly exciting, it is the unrevealed organize lower down that transforms the bracelets from bare jewelry into stories.
In this pack, the copper old for the bracelets was indeed the outer jacket of a 155mm artillery upon — the remnants of war, unfortunately, that are as much a by of Cambodia’s annals as Angkor Wat.
What has happened here has a approachable of virtuoso to its elemental beauty. Etching the patterns of the Ogygian last alters the figurative patterns of Cambodia’s more current and unhappy late into something sure: skills and incomes for victims of genocidal conflict.

Joy Division, The Cure, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Bauhaus, Depeche Mode, Echo and the Bunnymen…

Blondie outsold and produced more hits from 1980-1982 than anyone else in the top ten to last them the whole decade, and by far and away were the best New Wave band.

Since the term was actually credited to Blondie before anyone in a magazine concert review as the up and coming new wave of poppier punk, FYI!!!!

B’52’s, Human League, Go Go’s and ABC all should be in the top ten without a doubt.

Duran Duran were new wave, but got very POP-SELL OUT, and lost some credibility.

theres no latest band

Always glad to see the perennially-underrated and under-appreciated XTC making the list.

Echo is one of the best bands EVER in any era!!! A bit of Doors, Television, Velvet Underground, Psych, Punk, etc. It’s all a matter of opinion - but the list looks pretty solid to me. Duran has never gotten the respect they deserve (although they ripped off Japan!)

What? No one remembers Erasure?

the best echo song is “bring on the dancing horses” the best new order song is “well any thing off the ‘low life cd’” the best talkin heads song is “road to nowhere” the best psychedelic furs song is “in to you like a train” the best elvis costello song is ” home is anywhere you hang your head” the best police song is “sally / would you be my girl” the best depeche mode song is “somebody” , the best Duran Duran song is “save a prayer” the best cure song is “boys dont cry” the best xtc song is “dear god”

what about? The The, Icicle Works, When in Rome, Information Society, Japan, Cocteau Twins, B-52s’ Roxy Music, Soft Cell, GoGos, Paul Hardcastle, Figures on a Beach, Del Fuegos, Oingo Boingo, Siouxsie…, Darling Buds, Lightning Seed, Dream Academy, Beat Farmers, Communards, Peter Gabriel, Laurie Anderson, Specials, Stranglers, 10,000 Maniacs, early Ministry

Prince people-dont act like he wasnt new wave..among the rest of his melting pot of music…have u ever listened to the albums “controversy” or “1999″?…depeche mode for only new wave though…

or DEVO or The Cars…

XTC! The nerdlingers that voted for them should be ashamed of themselves.

A good list except for XTC. Rubbish.

Put the B-52s in their place.

mmmmm Japan, even tho alot of their stuff was written before New Wave was even New Wave.

japan

Balaam and the Angel

Icehouse!!

Haircut 100!

NEW WAVE IS NOT DEAD!!!!

The Smiths anyone?

The Fixx!!

man, I forgot about the Plimsouls, Smithereens and Romantics!

is the Cocteau Twins considered new wave? if so, they are better than everyone on that list

Mon Dieu! Les Américains ignorants ont oublié Plastic Bertrand encore!

How is Elvis Costello considered a band? Don’t bands usually consist of more than one member?

The Mission
P.I.L.
Pop will eat itself
Sigue Sigue Sputnik
Big audio dynamite
Siouxsie..
Book of love
Steven “tin tin” duffy

two points for Joey Coco: Thompson Twins were a great live act, saw them twice in ‘84.

Let’s not forget Siouxsie Sioux. JuJu is one of the best album of the eighties. That one and Heaven From Here by the Bunnymen. And also, Rain Parade, Three O’Clock, The Long Ryders, Dream Syndicate, The Plimsouls and True West. The 80’s psychedelic revival was so much fun!!!

What ’bout Ultravox and The Cars - they were fun!

New Order should be numero uno, Talking Heads numero dos. They’ve influenced WAY more modern music than Echo and the Bunnymen. I can name so many bands in which one can easily hear remnants of New Order’s Substance…

Tears For Fears & Howard Jones

Pet Shop Boys

Animotion

Bauhaus

The Church

Dead or Alive

ok ok, cutting it off here..this could go on forever

OMD

Fad Gadget (!!!) - The Chameleons - Kissing The Pink - Men Without Hats - Sisters Of Mercy - The Mission - etc.

Devo and Oingo Boingo!

Pretenders

thefixx

The Fixx + Sue Saad & The Next + Phil Seymour + Robin Lane & Chartbusters + The Kings + Missing Persons + The Romantics + Berlin + The Plimsouls + Eurythmics + Flash & The Pan

another oversight: Simple Minds and Icehouse

I wouldn’t call Talking Heads new wave

I see Big Country was once again overlooked.

DEVO!!!!!

Thompson Twins
Berlin

“I always fucking hated New Wave” - Bernard Sumner, New Order

Sweet. The Bunnymen are criminally underrated.
