Your favourite non-goth band

What's your favourite non-goth band? Preferably your favourite and most obscure band.

For me, Funtastic Power! is one of my favourite bands. I don't know why but I love the whole high-energy remix thing.

I'd say probably Crass.
Or Send More Paramedics...

Foo Fighters, although Pixies and Placebo are pretty up there too.

Tough question, but I'd say Illogic or Aesop Rock.

It's a toss up between 80's pop and new wave like Adam and the Ants, Dead or Alive, Eurythmics, Billy Idol... and all the stuff I listened to as a pre-teen (and still love) like Placebo, AFI and the Distillers.

I also really like Tool and A Perfect Circle, haven't listened to them in ages.

Oh and I'm pretty keen on a lot of shoegaze bands, LSD and the Search for God and My Bloody Valentine in particular.

And I really love Hole.

Fuck this, I can't pick singular favourites of anything anymore.
