The Wipers are the best post-punk band of all time and it's not even close. They're miles above all of that Brit-slop garbage.
Fuck Onions Division. Fuck Wire. Fuck the Cure. And especially fuck all those C-tier post-punk bands that zoomers jerk off to (Chameleons, the Sound, etc).

If the Wipers are the best post-punk band, if they're double s tier, who are in the s tier and a tier?

I forgot to ask for b tier. Who would you place in the b tier?
While I disagree with your assessment that those post punk bands are c tier, you're entitled to your own opinion.

They were allright. More Punk than Post Punk if you ask me.
Chrome are better anyhow.

I've never really thought of the wipers as post punk either. If anything they're closer to hardcore imo.

This is my first time hearing rudimentary peni and based off the few songs I've heard they sound more goth (post punk subgenre) and hardcore than post punk

Raincoats got mogged by the Slits who did their own song better than them and released it before they did.
Double S post punk only contains The Fall. Wire are like A tier.

I meant Wipers but also Wire. Devo sucks. The Idiot is S tier I'll give you that. Mission of Burma puts me to sleep. No Trend is underrated but only had a couple of really good songs.

Now you understand why they're the best post-punk band. It's a shitty genre.

These seem like bands I should like in theory, but I don't get the appeal desu. I respect them but nothing I've heard has appealed to me.

What? you cant even make an arguement for why you erroneously belive they're post punk? They don't sound like any post punk band I've ever heard.

It was a stylistic choice on my part. 'Onions Division' looks funnier than 'Soi Division'.
