The American post-punk No Wave band from New York City, formed in 1979.

Fed up with passersby harassing her or firing unsolicited comments about her outlandish appearance while selling tickets, she jotted down the refrain in a matter of minutes: "I just don't wanna go out in the streets no more..." The resultant track released later that year became a "downtown anthem", she says, and shuttled her band Bush Tetras toward cult acclaim in the city. Written by The Guardian See less
