  “I'm surprised. Those clothes… but, aren't you…?”

  The better part of the Rolling Stones discography.
  
  Oingo Boingo, "Capitalism" and "Little Girls".
  
  Throbbing Gristle.

  “I'm surprised. Those clothes… but, aren't you…?”

  Indeed. Also:
  
  Devo's entire early career, but particularly "Mongoloid" and all those weird sex-related songs.
  
  I wonder how they would react to Dead Kennedys, though. The subject matter has a strong leftward bent, but it's delivered in a deliberately offensive manner targeted at insulated bourgeois sorts, soooooooo.

  Whores! we want "poems that kill."
  Assassin poems, Poems that shoot
  guns. Poems that wrestle cops into alleys
  and take their weapons leaving them dead

  California Uber Alles would raise some eyebrows

  ...And even when your hope is gone

  move along, move along, just to make it through

  (2015 self)

  Bongo Bongo Bongo (I don't want to leave the Congo) would never ever fly today.

  
  

  Yeah, for the best.

  So long as we're including XTC, can we put in some of Depeche Mode's/Joy Division's stuff too?
• Section42L

  2017-06-25 00:59:23

  Joy Division's very name would qualify under this, honestly.

  Also, I'll throw in "Oliver's Army" by Elvis Costello.

  fight. dream. horse. love.

  Eminem's entire discography, basically

  is it bad that I only know Joy Division through the fact that they were one of many musical namesakes in the Eureka Seven series?

  I think he's right that there's something wrong with the song, but he's not quite expressing it right.
  
  Anyway, my choice is: Ten Years After - "I'd Love to Change the World"

  Yes.
  
  Go listen to Unknown Pleasures and Closer. I'll be waiting.

  Also why would people make thinkpieces about American Idiot? It's pretty obvious what the song and album are about.

  "wake me up when September ends" is problematic because for some people September never ends
