Hi,

I am a huge fan of Pere Ubu & David Thomas.

Which other artists would you recommend to me?

The Dead Boys
Rocket From The Tombs

But's only because Pere Ubu members were in those bands.

Captain Beefheart.
Television.
Roxy Music

Wire
The Feelies
Minutemen

well, Eric Drew Feldman played on the Pixies last album "Trompe le monde" and on Franck Black subsequent self-titled solo album.

but you probably knew that.
