Note Bad Religion or Hot Hot Heat who do different spects of punk superbly.... White Stripes? brown Stripes more like!

I have liked what I've heard on the radio, and they do IMO a really good cover of Re-make/Re-model, which can be heard at under Rarities. I was a little too young to remember the original show about the real Louds, but watched the PBS documentary about Lance. To me, he seemed to be emulating Ferry's mannerisms in the short snippets of Mumps footage. Nice, proto-punk stuff as I recall.
