What genre perfectly describes Talking Heads' sound? Post-punk/New Wave are obviously wrong classifications.
post punk meets new wave meets art punk
Modern upbeat

Wrong, please read OP again. Art punk and New Wave don't exist, as for post-punk there are only a handful of bands that could really described as such musically and Talking Heads are not one of them.
Does it need to have a genre?
>>73500389
Not necessary but their supposed involvement with punk/post-punk is simply imaginary. They don't sound anything like that.
disco-rock

pop
>>73500442
They got lumped in there because those were the typenof bands they played along side when they were on the come up.

what? wasn't punk already an established format by the time the Heads rolled around?
>>73500389
yes, what the fuck kind of question is that?
post-world music
>>73503598
yes, but it sounds similar to proto-punk, therefore gets the designation
