The SLits

I saw many of these bands live, though.

Dang, Lisa, I would order those almost exactly in that order. (I came out as Joy Division...hmmm. I don't think I'm nearly suicidal enough.)

You scored as Joy Division.



Manchester’s Joy Division remain one of the most popular and influential post-punk bands, perhaps thanks in part to singer Ian Curtis’ martyr-like status following his suicide in 1980. Their music is a dark, atmospheric, almost gothic sound which is complemented perfectly by Curtis’ tortured lyrics, best heard on 1980’s ‘Closer’.

You scored as The Pop Group.



The music of Bristolian band the Pop Group was a confrontational mix of jazz, funk and dub reggae filtered through punk rock. Their left-wing lyrics and innovative music are best heard on their 1979 debut 'Y'.

You scored as Throbbing Gristle.

Throbbing Gristle are probably one of the most notorious and controversial bands of all time. Their proto-industrial music is self-consciously confrontational and alienating whilst their lyrics often deal with disturbing subject matter. Their best album is probably 1979’s deceptively-named ’20 Jazz Funk Greats’

You scored as Wire.

Wire were arguably the band who provided the link between early British punk and post-punk, combining buzzing guitars and catchy choruses with an art-school approach to composition. They are best heard on 1977's 'Pink Flag'.
