I know this is going to get moved to the features area but one of my favorite new wave band DEVO lost a member today. Actually DEVO's music was used in the Heavy Metal comics so maybe this can stay on the news section.

Or my ex.

I blame her for everything.

Even if it's not her fault, it's still her fault.

Hahaha wow, u seem so sure of how everything happened. Sounds like you only like one type of punk to me, Punk is an attitude not a style or a certain way you wear your doc martins. The clash was one of the most "punk" bands around because of what they sang about,London Calling was a huge f u to politics and how things don't have to be. Your saying because bands used less distortion and better lyrics makes them not punk?

Nice, but Billy Idol was never punk or new wave.

Ian Curtis is spot on. Robert Smith should have been Joker
