• iamx - "My Secret Friend"
  catchy
• LOLO - "Hit and run"
  one of those songs, slightly Marina and the Diamonds, that returns regularly in the playlists I find. It's not too bad. But I can never remember who or what.

• EELS - "Dead Reckoning" - strangely atmospheric, almost parlando and film noir
• 
  

Lawless (ft Britt Warner) - "Diminuendo"

http://8tracks.com/mirayuuki/where-i-end-you-begin

Bit over the top, but catchy and dark.

Also:

Not as amazing as I thought it would be, but still nice.

Esqueletos by Tarantella: is this "the" Tarantella that I used to listen to in CA?

Piano Magic - "Luxembourg Gardens"

http://8tracks.com/noellesnowelle/the-love

Intriguing song. Haunting, but not so.

Imagination Upgraded - "Harley Quinn's Theme Music"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=obJKUWkr9RA

strange but cool in an estranged eerie carnavalesque way.

Gabriel Bruce - "Sleep Paralysis" (and more, maybe)

Slow, Czar-like singing, moody song.

• Show Time - "Camero Cat" - carnavalesque

  trip-hoppy, distorted voices, synths... should look into this

• Babbit - "Painting Greys"
  not even sure I like it (vocoder... :| ) but still intrigued

  Bit Florence and the Machine, also she keeps singing "Don't Come Back for Me"

Thea Gilmore - "Razor Valentine" (avalanche)

Muted late-night sad song.

Mark Lanegan - "Prayer Ground"

Low, Americana, slow guitarish song.

Via 8track, first hit when searching for "george orwell"

• Doctor Flake - "Fightclubbing" - nice, look into!
• LAKE R▲DIO - "Martin Hannett's Ghost" - very strange

Another interesting song from a J.G. Ballard inspired playlist.

the National - "Conversation 16"

Good enough, although not as industrial as the rest of the playlist.

Gloomy Synthesizer Sundays - part 2.

So... post-punk came from punk, borrowed its DIY attitude, its love for modern art (symbolism, Dadaïsm), applied that to rock music, to look beyond the usual rock music boundaries (using dubstep, synths, etc), but not necessarily limiting itself to the sonic resonances of punk...

And from there came, end of the 70's, crashing into the 80's, among others, cold wave. Primarily French music style, though it was Kraftwerk and Siouxie and the Banshees who first provoked that description.

Nancy Nova - "no no no" : funny song

Delta Rae - "I Will Never Die"

Powerful female singer song. Hints of rhythm & blues.

Found via nice 8tracks: http://8tracks.com/missfit2/payday

Swans - "Mona Lisa, Mother Earth"

Voice-heavy 80s sounding song. Intriguing. Second in playlist
http://8tracks.com/silent-alarmm/indie-classics

Aesthetic Perfection - "Under Your Skin" (All Beauty Destroyed, 2011)

A slow Marilyn Manson, in the way he sings. Hints of industrial, but very slow.
