New Wave Survivor-Idol: Final Four

Postby scramjet » Mon May 16, 2005 1:23 am

NWO voters have exercised their freedom of choice. Devo gets whipped (but by only one vote). They're here to go. They're the band U want off the island. They're not only through being cool, they're through.

Vote your LEAST FAVORITE off the island/stage.

Review past rounds:
http://www.nwoutpost.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=5913

Ranking the cast-offs:

5. Devo
6. Talking Heads
7. Blondie
8. The Smiths
9. Depeche Mode
10. Human League
11. U2
12. The B-52's
13. Adam (and the) Ant(s)
14. R.E.M.
15. The Pet Shop Boys

Who survives until the next round?

While Duran Duran is Synth-pop and The Clash is more of a punk sound, DD is way more New Wave than TC. That being said, neither one will be around for the final round.

Well I almost pulled the trigger on The Clash but in the end I was so disappointed with the latest DD reunion thing that I had to clip them. As for The Clash...I am going to drop the bomb between the Minarets on them next time!

Can't we just skip all this nonsense and get straight to the inevitable New Order vs. The Cure final? [:D]
