New Wave Outpost Forum

The New wave alphabet. You will probably have at least two or three favorite bands by one letter, but you must write down the band you like the most. I really had it hard with letter Z.

A (The) Associates
B B-Movie
C (The) Comsat Angels
D D.A.F.
E Echo & The Bunnyman
F Fun Boy Three
G Gang Of Four
H Heaven 17
I It's Immaterial
J Joy Division
K Kim Wilde
L Lotus Eaters
M Martha & The Muffins
N New Order
O OMD
Q Queen
P Play
R Roxy Music
S Secession
T The The
U Ultravox
V Vicious Pink
W (The)Wild Swans
X Xtc
Y Yazoo
Vitamin Z

I hate that numbered bands always get discriminated against. [;)]

But this is like the World Cup brackets...some powderpuff ones and some brutal ones. I assure you that whoever emerges from M, N, or S group play will crush the competition in the knockout stages!
