Everything about New wave music
Music genre from the 1970s and 1980s
New wave is a music genre encompassing pop-oriented styles that emerged in the United States and United Kingdom in the mid-to late 1970s. The term was initially synonymous with punk rock but soon branched off into its own distinct style: a lighter and more melodic "broadening of punk culture", in contrast to the more atmospheric sounds of post-punk. Over time, new wave became a catch-all for several musical styles that emerged after the initial popularity of punk, such as synth-pop, power pop, and two-tone ska. Wikipedia →
