post punk/dance punk

[Rubberneck]

ok, here's the deal. i have been obsessed with q and not u for the last few months. i've also been listening to my fair share of !!!, and am still on a natural high from seeing melt banana on halloween eve.

moral of the story is that i have been feeling burnt out on guitar for a few months now. it has been nice to brush up my drum and piano skills, but i think i am just ready to move away from mellow acoustic music for a while. i want to say fuck it to pristine clean tones and play some stuff that makes me want to move instead of sit on the front porch in a rocking chair.

please recommend me any preferably post punk bands that put off that dance vibe that just makes you feel good. a link to some sample songs or a little description would be orgasmic, but i can't promise any results in that department. i'm needing some inspiration, so hook me up : ]

dude, join last.fm. i want to pinpoint your musical taste

i am not around computers (especially with internet access) enough to justify signing up for such nonsense. if you want, i plan on organizing my cd/vinyl collection this weekend, so i could write you up a list if you are really that interested.

on the topic of last fm, i see you've been rockin' blur lately. what is your take on blur vs the gorillaz? completely off subject, but i'd like to hear your opinion.

I prefer Blur. Gorillaz and the good, the bad, and the queen is good music. Albarn is a great musician. Pretty much anything he touches will sound like ok to quality music. I see him taking the road Danny Elfman took. being involved in scores and such....

oingo boingo did some fun stuff you know


and i just remembered that back in january, missing score's last practice for a while, we did a dance remix version of horses (the days run away like wild horses), which i'd like to revisit some day, but we're way too concerned now about getting the 4/5 new songs we have actually good.
