@ryanarchy422 - Thanks for mentioning The Sound. Incredible band that really doesn't seem to get enough recognition. You should check out Fingerprintz too if you haven't already. Cheers!

quality is amazing for its vintage

As this clip proves, Mission was laying the foundation for Alternative and beyond before punk rock had run its course.

@askl23 A lot of the best post punk was from the late 70s and early 80s. Just start with Gang of Four, Wire, Joy Division, Minutemen, The Sound and look at people they played with and you'll find a ton of bands.

@Alienpelvis86 They were sort of the odd band out in that book, almost all of the rest discussed were mid to late-'80s, but Mission of Burma goes back to the late '70s. From what I remember, their whole chapter just harps on about what a shame it was that Mission of Burma started and ended so early in the burgeoning post-punk scene.

yes!

Shit yeah.



I've listen to Signals, Calls and Marches, Vs., ONoffON, The Obliterati and The Horrible Truth about Burma. NOT A BAD SONG ON ANY OF THEM.
