Kind of a shame rock lobster has turned them into a meme. They have some neat stuff.

Is anyone aware of this obscure Demo Tape by Devo? It dates back between 1970 and 1972, and it hasn't' even been bootlegged.
Ryan Richardson
Rock Lobster is one of 100 best rock songs ever written. And yes, it is the actual standout on the album (pre-empting a nice user who incorrectly claims that it isn't whenever I write this comment; Planet Claire is nice too).
Austin Brown
Thats a punk album tho bruh
Jace Morales
CAN YOU NAME
NAAAME
NAAAAAAAAAAAAME
NAME THEM TODAY
Adam Smith
this. this whole album is top tier and fun as shit
Brody Cox
Do you guys consider stuff like Devo, XTC and The B-52's to be 'post-punk'? It's clear to me how bands like Blondie and The Cars shouldn't, but these three sound kinda post-punky to me.
William King
Those are all free jazz bands
Lucas Brown
They are new wave to me, combo of punk and zany art rock
Michael Roberts
Iraq Lobster > Rock Lobster
Gavin Lee
New Wave is the shit. If you don't like it you dont like art or life
Jonathan Williams
Imagine being this gay and retarded
Parker Gutierrez
I consider all new wave to be post punk. New wave was about taking the basic structures that punk unearthed after years of wankery, then adding an electronic or modern hook and making fun pop. I think the whole punk thing was more about getting fresh blood on the pop charts and reiterating that the hippie movement is way dead.
It holds up real well because straightforward pop never ages and there were some solid songwriters in the movement.
Give me your top 5 generally accepted New Wave bands Yea Forums
I’ll start
1. The Police
2. The Cars
3. Squeeze
4. Talking Heads
5. XTC
Joseph Baker
Can't wait to see them this summer. :^) Saw The Church recently, too.
Christian Smith
it's punky, its not punk
Christopher Hughes
New Wave teetered on the edge of punk/post-punk, and this can especially be heard in the late 70s early 80s before the synths really took over, then it became more synth-pop/new wave.
Kevin Flores
This. People consider The Police, Japan, and Blondie to be New Wave. It's a very broad genre.
Jason Smith
Lene Lovich is pleb filter

>New Wave is the shit. If you don't like it you dont like art or life
Even the designers of the Commodore Amiga liked New Wave
Alexander Baker
What is the Yea Forums take on Oingo Boingo? Is their stuff generally accepted as a good and unique infusion of New Wave and Ska or disregarded as campy and forgettable outside the 80s? I would ask what their best album is, but we would already know the answer to that is Nothing to Fear.
Aiden Nguyen
I really like Grey Matter, Just Another Day, and Dead Man's Party.
Bentley Rogers
>I will never see xtc live

Camden Gonzalez

Dylan Butler
