Sorry, I didn't realise we were limiting ourselves to 'guitar based' bands.

Although... TG were a guitar based band in the late 70's and early eighties. They just played them unconventionally and used alot of treatment on the sounds. And not all of their stuff was extreme. 'Shadow Of The Sun' is almost ambient.

I would say that Cabaret Voltaire's 'Voice of America' is a post punk album, but both the Cabs and TG had been working on their music since the early 70's - before punk happened.

So I guess they would be 'pre-punk - post punk'
