Went with The Strokes. Personally I think 'new wave' is a pretty good genre label for them. They sound like The Cars if The Cars played at CBGB's to me. Tears For Fears do absolutely nothing for me.

Sorry, it wasn't clear. I didn't think it would matter much. It's an absurd match IMO because I can't begin to view the postpunk/new wave in The Strokes, and I really don't like Tears For Fears. So voting here is an endless circle of indecision as far as I'm concerned. But I do understand Tears For Fears being in the tourney (well, past Siouxsie in the first round is unexplainable to me, but to each his own).

Not that it mattered a lot, I just wanted your opinion on that. Thanks 😉

I'm not sure what your mean. This tournament is based on both post-punk and new wave. If The Strokes' post-punkism is clearly debattable, I'm not sure you can consider Tears For Fears anything but a new wave band : right time, right place, right sound.
