I know we're all jealous of my tastes but we should just move on

Should I bother listing all of the stuff I like that probably doesn't fit your perception of me? Nah.

But here's a few things about that blind spot you say I have for alt/post-punk.

1) My brother is into Sonic Youth, At The Drive In and other bands more or less in that direction, so I'm not exactly a stranger to music in this direction. We used to borrow albums from each other and I've borrowed Sonic Youth and Mars Volta albums from him before.
2) I used to own a Sonic Youth CD. Think it was EVOL. Might have been Dirty. Got rid of it eventually since I wasn't too into it, but I had it for a while.
3) Used to watch tonnes of music documentaries. Pretty sure I've watched some on punk, post-punk, new wave... other stuff in that vague area.
4) Checking out new music all the time - rock music included. PJ Harvey, btw, of whom I'm a big fan, sounds pretty much like your sort of thing. Shannon Wright as well.
5) EDIT: I forgot that I love a group called Doughnuts. Post-punk or something? Sounds like it to me - at least partially. Whatever it is, it rocks.

Their follow up album is solid too.

If I have a big musical blind spot, it's hip hop. And probably also jazz that isn't vocal centered and poppy.

LOL wrong again. It doesn't go past '85 - the year Hardcore fizzled out.

That doesn't sound like Post-Punk.

I don't mean 100%. Sounds to me like it's got one foot in the groove metal camp and one foot in something else, and just regular punk doesn't seem to quite be it. But whatever, I'm not exactly too sure of the boundaries separating some of all these rock sub-genres from each other. I don't tend to worry too much about genre labels, so I often get it wrong.

EDIT: Just went to Youtube for a reminder. Post punk doesn't actually sounds much like punk at all most of the time. It's way more like new wave. So basically, disregard that posted video above.
