As much as I love DM I did vote for Erasure in this poll. This is pure synth music at its best!

Yep Dm ! short and simpel.

I voted other...Front 242 is the best synth band (excl AV) from this time.
I think many of the bands mentioned here are pop bands (so are AV I think).
If these bands were introduced today, they would be classified as pop.

Well, I´m glad to see DM as clear number 1 - there´s no doubt in my mind.

Surprised about Ultravox though.

Let this vote be the semifinale, and make a new vote for the best 3 or 4 from the semfinale. Now it would be Depeche, A-ha, Ultravox and Erasure. Then maybe we can have a closer race

Great idea - I will make a new poll during the weekend.
