^ Thanks.  I listened to Comsat Angels when I think you posted it for Paul's consideration and loved it.  If I were to do a single (one album in each), I would want to mention Camberwell Now's The Ghost Trade.  And I love the pronk of Cardiacs. A lot of my fave punkish music crosses over with Goth, with Darkwave....

Weirdly perhaps, I never got into XTC despite being into plenty of Zolo and art punk.  I should try again.

Chameleons Script of the bridge by far   (with its progressive like covert art), they deserved better but in 1983 such an Lp was almost uncommercial

2fers from some bands: Some of my favourite albums/ bands with punky qualities

Paul is doing  a UK punk series, and this is just a more general punky poll covering some acts that I like.  Here are 25 bands with a certain punkinshness about them, and I have two albums per band listed.  Please vote for up to three of these bands, and if you want to specify another album from a band off the list, that's fine, but ideally it should be punky or punkish to you.  Some of my options are more punk than others.

I find the first two Cocteau Twins much more post-punk than later works.  When you vote for an option, you can  cast one vote for either album by the band, both albums by the band, or another album by the band, but try to choose one of the punkier albums as acts can be stylistically diverse.  And feel free to mention any not on the list.  Comments and even criticisms are appreciated, as are asides for this quite civil and orderly mosh pit.

Bauhaus: In the Flat Field (1980) or The Sky's Gone Out (1982)
Black Country, New Road: For the First Time (2021) or Ants From Up There (2022)
black midi: Schlagenheim (2019) or Hellfire (2022)
Echo & The Bunnymen: Porcupine (1983) or Ocean Rain (1984)
Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds: Your Funeral ... My Trial (1986) or Let Love In (1994)
The Chameleons: Script of the Bridge (1983) or Strange Times (1986)
Cocteau Twins: Garlands (1982) or Head Over Heels (1983)
The Cure: Pornography (1982) or Disintegration (1989)
The Fall: Hex Enduction Hour (1982) or Perverted Language (1983)
Interpol: Turn on the Bright Lights (1982) or Antics (2004)
Joy Division: Unknown Pleasures (1979) or Closer (1980)
Killing Joke: Killing Joke (1980) or Night Time (1985)
Magazine: Real Life (1978) or Secondhand Daylight (1979)
The National: Alligator (2005) or Boxer (2007)
Pere Ubu: The Modern Dance (1978) or Dub Housing (1978)
Public Image Ltd.: Metal Box (1979) or The Flowers of Romance (1981)
Siouxsie and The Banshees: Juju (1981) or Tinderbox (1986)
The Sisters of Mercy: First and Last and Always (1985) or Floodland (1987)
The Sound: Jeopardy (1980) or From the Lions Mouth (1981)
Squid: Bright Green Field (2021) or O Monolith (2023)
Swans: Children of God (1987) or The Great Annihilator (1995)
Television: Marquee Moon (1977) or Adventure (1978)
This Heat: This Heat (1979) or Deceit (1981)
Tuxedomoon: Desire (1981) or Holy Wars (1985)
Wire: Chairs Missing (1978) or 154 (1979)

As usual, I have a song from each album in a youtube playlist.  Well, it's not complete because I am having internet connectivity issues, but I will have 50 tracks.
