New Wave music - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (773 words) |
 | New Wave is a term that has been used to describe many developments in music, but is most commonly associated with a movement in American, Australian, British, Canadian and European popular music, in the late 1970s and early 1980s, growing out of the New York City punk rock scene, itself centered around the club CBGB. |
| Music that followed on from The Ramones (the Sex Pistols and all who followed them) was distinguished as "punk", while music that followed from the artistic and poetic experimentation of Talking Heads, Television, Patti Smith and Blondie were called "new wave". |
| New Wave is generally considered to have died by 1985–1986, although it still had a presence in popular music as late as 1992. |
