They may have started in the mid-late 70s, but London Calling was released Dec, 1979, and Combat Rock was ‘82. I think calling them an ‘80s band is fair.

Yeah, I think I just associate punk rock with the 70's, whereas the others are definitely more 80s. I'd swap Joy Division for New Order for the perfect set.
