I'd probably add Ian Curtis from Joy Division. Take him away from the band and you suddenly sound like New Order.


Can't tell if this is a joke...

It was a joke...and not a knock on New Order. But they sound like two completely different bands.

I never considered Fagan to be a great singer, but you're correct that his style played a considerable role in their sound. From a recording standpoint, he had exactly what record companies looked for....a unique voice that was easily identifiable to listeners.

Of course MTV came along and changed the game.

As for your question, I think it would be strange to hear the Police without Sting.

Violent Femmes really wouldn't have worked with any other frontman.
