I generally don't approve of memes, but this one has lots of potential. Great idea from my friend Brooke.

Time for a dose of
Why Aren't You Listening To.....



THE CHAMELEONS

who they are.
Perhaps the most influential and underappreciated post-punk band to ever come out of Manchester.

who they've been compared to.
Joy Division, The Smiths, The Cure, Echo and the Bunnymen, Wire, early U2

album you should check out right now.
Script of the Bridge and Strange Times. Both in my top 10 favorite albums ever.

tracks you should check out this instant.
Second Skin. Swamp Thing. Tears. Don't Fall. In Shreds. Paradiso. In Answer. Monkeyland. Less than Human.

style.
The epitome of British post-punk. Dark, gloomy, atmospheric... only with a much stronger guitar focus than most other bands in the genre.

video to watch.
Second Skin:

(it's just a slideshow, but it'll get you to listen to the song)

(This is totally gonna be a thing. and if not, it should be. i like finding new music.) <-- the words of Brooke. But I agree completely.
