I'm down, but are Suicide really no wave? They were around almost a decade earlier than any of those groups, and don't really share much in common with them musically. You've left off Confusion Is Sex. And I wouldn't normally use a compilation album, but considering how important it was, I think No New York should definitely be considered. Have to give most of the second half of that list a listen. Not to mention Mars' album. I don't remember how good it was, but it definitely bears revisiting.
