Up the punks
The Hammered:
Does anyone here like no wave? I haven't come across any no wave stuff (unless you count early Sonic Youth), and I'll probably have to order it either over the Internet or through a local store, but I'm really interested in checking it out. I'm not sure how similar it is to more "regular" punk, but I've heard it was sort of an outgrowth of punk so I figured this was the best place to ask.
Ghostwriter:
A.F.I, The Dead Kennedys, Agent Orange, Bad Religion, Fugazi, The Clash, The Bouncing Souls, Alkaline Trio, and Millencolin to name some.

No wave is a pretty disparate collective. Not likely that you'll go for everything in it...I personally worship early Swans, but I haven't liked any other no wave stuff I've heard, which is admittedly not much.
The Hammered:
I like early Swans too, though I have to be in the right mood to listen to them. I might check out that Brian Eno compilation, No New York. It sounds like that's a good starting place.

--- Quote from: Borondir ---I've been falling in love with psychobilly in the form of Tiger Army.

While I, like most psychobilly kids, loathe to call Tiger Army psycho, they're an okay band.
--- Quote from: Combinethresher ---If psychobilly's your thing, look up Mad Sin, Godless Wicked Creeps, Lucky Devils, Mad Heads, Gorilla, Peacocks, and Season of Nightmares. It's all good stuff, and a lot of those bands are more musically sound than you'd expect.

Are you the same 'combinethresher' on PORK? I agree with the Mad heads, Gorillas and Peacocks (they're touring the US in a few weeks, but the dates arent on their myspace or website - if someone wants, I can post them). Mad Sin, too, are touring the states, beginning tomorrow, if I recall. Other psychobilly I'd recommend is the Meteors ("In heaven" and "wrecking crew" are the two most essential psychobilly records and each over 20 years old..) Batmobile is of course great, too, and the Quakes, Guana Batz, King Kurt, Lonesome Kings, Speed Crazy...a bunch more bands I could add, but I dont want to bore you...
