Post-punk is actually very subjective and you`ll always get a whole load of diverse opinions on the subject. The first band that always comes to mind when I think of post-punk is always the Stooges. |

If we're limiting it to their early stuff, not especially. If we're talking London Calling and Combat Rock, then yes. But it's not like the fact that those albums have a crisp sound (in my mind) ruins it for me, because I enjoy those albums. I just prefer the noisier, more chaotic sound of proto-punk.

I do enjoy Trout Mask Replica and I was gonna check out the rest of his discography that gets buried under Trout. Instead I checked out the Residents and yeah...
If Captain Beefheart has some post-punk stuff you recommend, that would be great. I may be in the same boat as Above, where I don't exactly understand what is and isn't post-punk and maybe I actually do have an opinion of it. |

post punk. More interesting subject matter, less "typical" rock conventions, easier for my adolescent self to feel an emotional connection to even if i didn't always understand what they were saying(mark e smith)
However, velvet underground and nico,and select songs from the stooges I appreciate more then most post punk I've listened to. |
