New Wave Music Bands
New Order – The Band
New Order is one of the most influential bands in new wave and electronic music. Formed in 1980, the group rose from the ashes of Joy Division and created a fresh, modern sound. Their music blends post‑punk energy with synth‑driven melodies and dance‑floor rhythms. The band broke through with early tracks like “Ceremony” and “Temptation.” Their sound was emotional, stylish, and ahead of its time. In 1983, New Order released […]
The Cure
It all started in 1976 as Easy Cure, formed by Robert Smith (vocals, guitar) along with schoolmates Michael Dempsey (bass), Lol Tolhurst (drums), and local guitar hero Porl Thompson. They began writing and demoing their songs almost immediately, playing throughout 1977 in Southern England to an ever-growing army of fans. In 1978 the 'Easy' was dropped, along with Porl, and an eager trio now known simply as The Cure was […]
Kids in the Kitchen
Australian band Kids in the Kitchen exemplified the '80s sound: well-packaged funk and dance-pop characterized by synth sounds and smooth production. Mushroom's White label signed up the fledgling band after they had been together for only eight months. Their first two singles were an immediate success: "Change in Mood"/"Far From Where" (October 1983) and "Bitter Desire"/"Hunting and Haunting" (April 1984) both hit the national Top Ten. In 1984, the Kids […]
Lords of the New Church
Lords of the New Church brought a dark, rebellious edge to the new wave and post‑punk scene. Formed in 1981, the band blended punk attitude, gothic style, and sleek new wave production. Their sound was bold, dramatic, and instantly recognizable. The group featured Stiv Bators, Brian James, Dave Tregunna, and Nick Turner—musicians already known for their work in punk’s first wave. Together, they created a fresh, genre‑bending style that pushed […]
Clan of Xymox
Clan of Xymox is a pioneering force in dark wave and new wave music. Formed in the Netherlands in 1981, the band blends moody synths, gothic textures, and hypnotic rhythms. Their sound is atmospheric, emotional, and unmistakably retro. Led by Ronny Moorings, Clan of Xymox gained early attention with their debut EP Subsequent Pleasures. After signing with 4AD, they released their self‑titled album in 1985, featuring the cult hit “A […]
The Human League
The Human League is one of the most important synth‑pop and new wave bands of all time. Formed in Sheffield, England in 1977, the group began as an experimental electronic project before evolving into a global chart‑topping act. Their sound blends icy synths, sharp rhythms, and unforgettable pop hooks. The band re‑launched their lineup in 1980 with Philip Oakey, Joanne Catherall, and Susan Ann Sulley—an iconic trio that still leads […]
