Moderator Announcement r/postpunk Rules Update [PLEASE READ]
40
Upvotes
Hi all!
As some of you might've noticed, we've recently tweaked the subreddit rules a bit. We highly recommend you read this to get a good idea of how things will be handled here going forward.
Rule 4
First of all, all music posts now require some form of additional commentary or context. This can be in the form of opinions about the song, memories associated with it, experiences seeing it performed live, trivia, etc. as long as is encourages discussion. This rule has been in place for a little while now, but we've recently adjusted how we'll be enforcing this. We request that users here include this somewhere on their posts, whether it be in the title, body text, or as a comment on one's own post.
Rule 8
Second, please do not post excessively, and keep to a maximum of three posts per person per day. This helps prevent the sub from being excessively flooded or spammed by a single user.
To cap things off, we've been getting a number of messages via Modmail regarding users having difficulty posting. This is due to an anti-spam filter set up via AutoMod that requires posts from new accounts to be manually reviewed. Don't panic if this happens to you! It doesn't necessarily mean that your post has broken a rule, and the moderators here will have a look at it as soon as we can, although it may take a few hours.
If you run into this issue repeatedly, please contact the moderators via Modmail and we'll help you out. We do try our best to approve users whenever possible.

Discussion If you guys are looking for anything cold to listen to for the Fall, this is the best recommendation I have.

Well, it's that time of the year again, where I dig into either my playlists, Google, or the YouTube algorythm, in search of appropriate music for the season. I guess that never changes for me at any time of the year, but listening to that type of music around this time makes the season that much more comforting.. for me, at the least. I've gone through a lot of mysic, like older Cure albums, stuff from For Against(another spectacular band), Sad Lovers and Giants, The Opposition, etc. But this.. this album epitomizes everything I love about the Post-Punk/Coldwave genre, and it is the most apt album for that mood. I highly recommend it to anyone, like me, who is looking for something to listen to to fully immerse themselves - even further so - in this season.
Cheers!
And if anyone has any other bands/albums they too would like to share, I'm always open for your recommendations!

Band that took a lot from Northern Soul, 60s pop, Mod and an ironic take on crooner-ish style.

Review Brazilian post-punk: Fellini
21
Upvotes
Fellini is a post-punk band from São Paulo’s underground scene, originally influenced by The Durutti Column and The Stranglers. They released their first three albums on the independent Baratos Afins label, with a DIY approach to recording. Their fourth album, the excellent Amor Louco (1990), expanded their sound with influences from MPB, samba-rock and bossa nova. After a long hiatus, they returned as a duo in 2002 with Amanhã É Tarde, released by Midsummer Madness.
These are my Fellini records!

Discussion Modern post-punk bands?
1
Upvotes
I find a lot of good 80s bands in this sub but don't see a lot of modern post-punk. I know bands tend to use that loosely these days, but I mean at its core the foundations from the first wave post-punk bands... what have people been listening to? I recently found this artist and that put me down a bit of a rabbit hole https://youtu.be/gK8GZ7ynLJU?si=n0CAAtIHWUbdBKH5
