Electroclash

90年代后期再纽约和底特率开始形成气候，有后来由于Larry Tee自己举办了Electroclash™ Festival到达一个高度。Electroclash是混合了NEW WAVE、PUNK和电子舞曲的一种音乐形式，NEW WAVE的特性让它们和其他的ROCK或者PUNK可以区别开来，比如大量使用合成器和鼓机等等（听听Ladytron新专辑中的soft power吧，简直就是一直女声DEPTCH MOD，真是复古）；歌词上则主要是收到Punk的影响（比如Ladytron的歌曲Seventeen是这样写的：They only want you when you're seventeen；When you're twenty-one；You're no fun；They take a polaroid and let you go；Say they'll let you know；So come on，然后上述歌词重复7次，歌词稍做修改就结束全曲，有点PUNK的影子吧)，而不在象NEW WAVE 乐团那样吧很多精力放在风花血夜的描述上，同样有点象PUNK一样更重情绪表达而不是技术炫耀（只是相对而言，应为它们不只用乐曲还用很多电子设备，传统的技术论很难比较）。外观衣着受到Eurotrash的影响，啥是Eurotrash俺并不知道（可能指一种生活方式吧，低雅？低调的优雅？kitch？自己查吧。。。）
