I haven’t been playing long, favorites so far is pretty much anything I can sort of make sound like the original. I’m still not full speed with these, but I’m working my way there…
Pixies “Where is my mind”
The Cure “Fascination Street” (I know its repetitive, but I’ve always loved this song)
Smashmouth “Allstar”
Repetitive, driving, effective basslines are the core of post-punk. Nothing wrong with it at all.
I struggle to get through the whole five minutes. There is a tension that builds through the whole song that makes it so hard.
That whole album has subtle stuff like that going on. I love the bassline for Disintegration and that song has the same kind of slow burn thing.
Definitely, at my level I’m lucky to still be playing when the vocals start… 
Stand by me and planet caravan.
