Re: The Music Discussion Thread - Your five favourite punk bands/artists
Absolute faves are The Damned, seen them loads of times and are very tight on stage. Captain is a true performer and DV a great voice....dig out their Live Shepperton album, well worth a listen!
Others in the top 5 would be Sex Pistols, PIL, The Clash and Dead Kennedys.
Post Punk I’d go for Pixies, The Von Bondies, New Model Army, Sonic Youth and Jesus and Mary Chain......probably change my mind when I think of a few more

See I'd call Sisters Goth, is goth a form of punk?

As would I, but born out of the same post-punk movement, imo. Look at Siouxsie, punk figurehead and also what so many goth girls aspire to look like. Not the most robust argument, but I think 'Goth' is post punk!

On the playlist over the last week
Siouxsie And The Banshees 'Juju' - their best imo!
Doors 'Doors' - superb debut, intending to listen to the rest of the Doors back catalogue so I can come up with my top ten songs
Kate Bush 'Before The Dawn' - shame i never got to see Kate but this 3CD live set is excellent compensation
June Tabor & the Oysterband 'Ragged Kingdom' - one of Tabor's best
The Fall 'Interim' - originally title to be 'Cocked', cracking live album
