■ Interesting of Ian to claim that the
Christmas Top Three dominated by
Popstars is the "antithesis of the
New Wave dream". Wrong. Punk was more
of a reaction against pompous prog
rockers such as Pink Floyd and Yes,
rather than the pop written by Chinn
and Chapman of The Sweet or Smokie.
Therefore, punk's natural enemy today
would be thj likes of Radiohead, not
Girls Aloud. Peter Pinsent
Void: Yes, Peter. But surely punk
finds a spectral echo in Radiohead's
ethos of despaiu and insurrection?
