Greatest Synthpop/New Wave Albums by Deckiller 
This list incorporates the more mainstream/accessible side of Post-Punk and Synthpop. It does NOT include artists more typically associated with Post-Punk or Art Pop, such as The Police, Joy Division/New Order, Japan, Peter Gabriel, The Cure, 80s King Crimson, The Smiths, etc. The exception is if those artists released a predominantly New Wave/Synthpop-sounding album, such as Talk Talk's debut or The Cure's pop phase. Likewise, albums like Human League's debut won't be included because they feel a bit too dark and underground to be considered New Wave to me. I was tempted to leave Talking Heads out of this list and put them on my Post-Punk/80s Alternative list instead, but I really feel like they're categorized more as New Wave than anything else.
The line may be a bit hazy, I know.
