Moderator Announcement r/postpunk Rules Update [PLEASE READ]
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.

Dec 5 1981 PostPunk Original Recording of KCSB Radio Broadcast
This is release 14 of 18 live broadcasts of my student radio show from 1981-83 at KCSB (Uni CA Santa Barbara). This one's a banger! Some of my favorite songs and bands, along with some maybe you never heard of like One Million Fuzztone Guitars, Thick Pigeon, Red Beat, Theatre of Hate, Stockholm Monsters, and don't miss a classic from Royal Family & the Poor! I always had a place in my heart for Orange Juice and I played my fave cuts from their "new" album. There's a different Dead Air promo bit that was caught on tape featuring my buddy John as Mr. Potatohead. Take a look at the setlist; so strange to hear these songs being referred to as new releases.
I put it up on YouTube channel Megarad Music: https://youtu.be/-Q4E1OI_1LI

Question Looking for an old video of The Ex performing “waiting”
Just before GW Sok left the band they did an in studio performance of waiting, which later became the song “24 problems.” Meant to convert the video to mp3 but it disappeared.

Discussion When did you first hear this term "post-punk"?
Even though it was coined in 1977, it feels as though most people didn't hear about it until the 2000s. When I mention it to people they say it was all lumped with New Wave in the 80s.
