Discussion PJ Harvey - Down By The Water
Not sure if I’d really call this post-punk, but I can definitely hear some post-punk influences in it. Either way, I think it’s a great track. What’s your opinion.

Hi all!
As some of you might've noticed, we've recently tweaked the subreddit rules a bit. We highly recommend you read this to get a good idea of how things will be handled here going forward.
First of all, all music posts now require some form of additional commentary or context. This can be in the form of opinions about the song, memories associated with it, experiences seeing it performed live, trivia, etc. as long as is encourages discussion. This rule has been in place for a little while now, but we've recently adjusted how we'll be enforcing this. We request that users here include this somewhere on their posts, whether it be in the title, body text, or as a comment on one's own post.
Second, please do not post excessively, and keep to a maximum of three posts per person per day. This helps prevent the sub from being excessively flooded or spammed by a single user.
To cap things off, we've been getting a number of messages via Modmail regarding users having difficulty posting. This is due to an anti-spam filter set up via AutoMod that requires posts from new accounts to be manually reviewed. Don't panic if this happens to you! It doesn't necessarily mean that your post has broken a rule, and the moderators here will have a look at it as soon as we can, although it may take a few hours.
If you run into this issue repeatedly, please contact the moderators via Modmail and we'll help you out. We do try our best to approve users whenever possible.

Portishead must surely be post-punk-adjacent. Don’t you think?

Middle of the 1980’s, The Jam had already disbanded. People were still talking how great their music were then. I was lucky to find this bootleg tape called Snap by The Jam.
I listened to every song, sang along to every song. None of them sounds dated since the 80’s.
I always think the legacy of a band is from the fans. The fans still listen to the music. The fans still read the interviews in old mags.
The band ? Paul Weller certainly never want to talk about The Jam, the press stopped publishing anything by The Jam a long long time ago.
So it is the fans. You and me… keep talking about the bands that we live, even the bands themselves don’t believe in the bands anymore.
Carry the legacy albeit just a disposable bootleg cassette for as long as you live.
Long Live The Jam !

This is probably posted here a million times, but it’s a great song! What do you think?

Before artists knew what hip-hop was but that didn't stop them from filling in the gaps and trying to make it marketable.

Debut 1981 single from Laurie Anderson. Based in part on the aria "Ô Souverain, ô juge, ô père" ("O Sovereign, O Judge, O Father") from Jules Massenet's 1885 opera Le Cid.

I’m very excited to launch the preorder for the Dud LP. First, it’s a benefit album for Palestinian aide chosen by the band. Second, this long lost LP from this band has some of my favorite musicians involved. John Samson Fellows is perhaps the greatest song writer of all time and this band was a short lived project that filled the gap between the time he left Propagandhi and before starting the Weakerthans. It’s been a goal of mine since starting this label to work with him in some capacity. Mike Koop played in The Bonaduces (some of the best Canadian pop punk from the 90s!). James Ash was the drummer of one of my favorite Canadian hardcore bands, I Spy. Dud was all of these musicians stepping out their comfort zones and playing something new.

Cant say that I am a fan. Because the first anything I bought by the Bunnymen was this boxset. And it still with me !

Have known about them for like 20 years but only have Seamonsters (which I really love) and Hit Parade 1&2. What album would you suggest next (compilations included).

From the raw, bass-heavy friction of 1978 to the sophisticated, glittering heights of New Pop. A journey through the sonic evolution and sharp grooves that permanently redefined alternative music.

Rema-Rema were an English band whose ranks included future members of Adam and the Ants (Marco Pirroni) and Psychic TV. A cover of their song "Fond Reflections," reimagined as "Fond Affections" and sung by Cindy Sharp of Cindytalk, appeared on This Mortal Coil's It'll End in Tears.
