I don`t know if you could really call Suicide an influence , I`d say they were more like contemporaries as far as punk goes.

I`d say they were more an influence for 80s music, bands like Throbbing Gristle , Cabaret Voltaire & Clock DVA rather than punk.

suicide i'd say in their early career were more influential to the electroclash movement and in their latter career owed more to post-punk and indie-rock. Their techno/drum machine combo was admittedly way ahead of its time and the vocals were i suppose quite punk..but they dont really cut it for me in terms of proto-punk.

big old school fan here

i love Iggy Pop and The Stooges, MC5 and The Who

A lot of these bands had a big influence on what came to be grunge and garage rock, as well as punk. Punk has so many sub genres its hard to tell.

I believe The Who was the first band to destroy their instruments on stage. if you watch the Monterey Pop festival.

i know the first band actually labelled "punk" was ? & the Mysterians. the seeds, the standelles and the kingsmen are all regarded as influences aswell. the kinks were also early visionaries with davies treatment of an amp and subsequent, distorted, edgy sound you hear on the likes of "you really got me" and "all day and all of the night".

Pere Ubu - Fontana Reissues
The four Fontana Years albums, The Tenement Year, Cloudland, Worlds In Collision, and Story Of My Life, will be reissued as individual cds by Universal Music in March 2007. The changes are:

The Tenement Year
The original 1988 Fontana release does not seem to have been mastered. David Thomas and Paul Hamann mastered it January 22-23 2007 at Suma. An alternate mix of Dream The Moon was substituted in the running order and five extras were added: the UK b-sides Postman Drove A Caddy and The B-Side, live in the studio recordings of Miss You and We Have The Technology for the John Peel Show (never previously released), and an alternate mix of The Hollow Earth (never previously released). As well, the sound of thunder that was found on the original Suma mix of the tracks was added - there was clearly some intention of including this somewhere for some reason. The packaging has been updated by John Thompson and added are extensive liner notes specific to the album by David Stubbs.

Cloudland
The album was originally mixed by Paul Hamann at Paisley Park Studios, Minneapolis MN. Subsequently four tracks were re-recorded in London and the others remixed for the 1989 Fontana release. This reissue substitutes in the running order the following Paisley Park mixes by Paul Hamann: Why Go It Alone?, Monday Night, Lost Nation Road, Nevada!, The Wire, The Waltz, and Pushin'. Five extras have been added: the UK b-sides Wine Dark Sparks and Bang The Drum, the Paisley Park mix of Breath (never previously released), Bus Called Happiness recorded live in the studio for the John Peel Show (never previously released), and a dance remix of Love Love Love. The packaging has been updated by John Thompson and added are extensive liner notes specific to the album by David Stubbs.

Worlds In Collision
Four extras have been added, the UK b-sides Around The Fire, Down By The River, Like A Rolling Stone, and Invisible Man. These were demos recorded for what the band refers to as The Lost Album. The packaging has been updated by John Thompson and added are extensive liner notes specific to the album by David Stubbs.

Story Of My Life
Five extras have been added: an alternate mix of Come Home by Stephen Hague (never previously released), the UK b-side Fedora Satellite, and three b-sides recorded for Story Of My Life but never released - Gripless, Through The Windshield and Stoughton 529. The packaging has been updated by John Thompson and added are extensive liner notes specific to the album by David Stubbs.
Better get my wallet out I think
