I really like Devo, The Human League, and Joy Division.

favorite bands: (some of these are post-punk, some synthpop/romantic, some "new wave")

aztec camera
the smiths
joy division
alphaville
rem
siouxsie and the banshees
the cure
sisters of mercy
wall of voodoo (actually a great band, "mexican radio" isn't the extent of their work)
devo
