12.31.14 | What makes Wire not just a punk band? |
NeroCorleone80
12.31.14 | Wire were kind of on the border between punk and post-punk. They were just more adventurous than other punk
bands at the time. Thats essentially what post-punk is really - punk that goes beyond the typical sound of the
genre. |

12.31.14 | who calls Wire a definitive post-punk band? |
Ryus
12.31.14 | Post-punk is a rock music genre that paralleled and emerged from the initial punk rock explosion of the late 1970s. The genre is a more experimental and arty form of punk.[1] Post-punk laid the groundwork for alternative rock by broadening the range of punk and underground music, incorporating elements of krautrock (particularly the use of synthesizers and extensive repetition), disco, dub music, and studio experimentation into the genre. It was the focus of the 1980s alternative music/independent scene, and led to the development of genres such as gothic rock and industrial music.[1] |

12.31.14 | I can see how Wire maybe can be a little repetitious. |

12.31.14 | Television are the definitive post-punk band imo, if only for Marquee Moon. |

12.31.14 | It is sth the journalists can't explain because they don't understand it, so they use corny and stupid words
to descibe the myriad forms of Rock n Roll. |
Snake.
12.31.14 | Anything with "Post-" in the genre means that it's a very popular genre used to be contrary to the purposes of that genre. So, essentially, Post-Punk is punk music that is not meant to punk. |
