Those 5 bands served as my introduction to this style of music. None of them sound particularly like any of the others, so you might like some and might dislike some. It's a very diverse and rewarding genre, though - so give them all a chance if you're interested! If you find do enjoy these bands, you'll find there are plenty other excellent, lesser-known post-punk bands as well.
Also, get the first Durutti Column album (the one I mentioned as my favourite) too!

The only one I have heard of is Joy Division and I didn't particularly like them. I heard them when someone said that they are related to Goth Music.
