Note: "New wave is a music genre that encompasses numerous pop-oriented styles from the late 1970s and the 1980s. It was originally used as a catch-all for the music that emerged after punk rock, including punk itself, but may be viewed retrospectively as a more accessible counterpart of post-punk. Although new wave shared punk´s DIY philosophy, they avoided the iconoclastic, abrasive and political aspects of punk rock; the artists were more influenced by the bubble-gum, bourgeois strains of 1960s pop while opposed to mainstream "corporate" rock, which they considered creatively stagnant.

In the early 1980s, virtually every new pop/rock act – and particularly those that featured synthesizers in their sound – was tagged as "new wave". By the 2000s, critical consensus favored "new wave" to be an umbrella term that encompassed power pop, synth-pop, ska revival, and the softer strains of punk rock. " - (en.wikipedia.org 27.12.2020)
