Maybe!?!? They do have some reggae like syncopation in some of their music, but I don't really think that qualifies them as reggae.

The police had more 2tone rythm similarities than reggae.

Declan MacManus (Elvis Costello) was about, slap bang in the middle of the punk movement during the mid 70's.
Before the term 'New Wave' was coined at a slightly later date.

Although his music would be suited (at that time) more to New Wave than Punk.
Far too talented, musically.

There's a lot of terrible, terrible, terrible new wave out there.

And some good stuff.

Seriously though, did someone above me mention Culture Club and Berlin? Christ.
