I realize this may shock no one...Joy Division and New Order! [8D] I don't have a clue what many of their lyrics really mean, but they're extremely emotive and often put me in a mesmerized or transcendental state...without drugs even.

I guess I'll have

Yaz (or, Yazoo). The first time I saw Alison Moyet's weird haircut, I knew that I'd like her and her big voice. Well, that and the fake skeleton bouncing around in the video.

I also recall seeing the video for "Suspended in Gaffa" by Kate Bush -- the

Yaz, Heaven 17, SSQ, Kraftwerk, Joy Division, The Cure... hell, it's hard to separate them, but I really remember the first time I heard each of them specifically.

Japan/David Sylvian.

To me, they are the pinnacle of New Romanticism. They fashioned, polished, and perfected the whole shebang in 1980's [i]Gentlemen Take Polaroids[/i]. Their album catalogue is the best illustration of how sound evolves.

I don't know why but Succession's "Touch" has always summed up what I love about New Wave....aside from being a great song, it just sounds like what I think of when I hear the words "New Wave".

I feel similiarly about most early DM.
