Not really. I prefer post punk to punk but post punk does not have a DIY low budget achievable sound which is what made punk such a thing. It had to start there, it was nessesary.

you're right except the unforgettable fire is when they went full stadium pop

There's lots of low budget post-punk out there. It's usually super obscure, and not in English.

Not necessarily. There's lots of good anarcho/second wave UK punk bands that did the post-punk thing pretty well on a low budget. Zounds, Crisis, early Killing Joke, UK Decay, mid period UK subs, etc.

Is post-punk trendy among zoomers? Why am I seeing it everywhere now?

it's doomer core
