Post-punk is a diverse genre that emerged from the cultural milieu of punk rock in the late 1970s. Originally called "new musick", the terms were first used by various writers in the late 1970s to describe groups moving beyond punk's garage rock template and into disparate areas. Sounds writer Jon Savage already used "post-punk" in early 1978. NME writer Paul Morley also stated that he had "possibly" invented the term himself. At the time, there was a feeling of renewed excitement regarding what the word would entail, with Sounds publishing numerous preemptive editorials on new musick. Towards the end of the decade, some journalists used "art punk" as a pejorative for garage rock-derived acts deemed too sophisticated and out of step with punk's dogma. Before the early 1980s, many groups now categorized as "post-punk" were subsumed under the broad umbrella of "new wave", with the terms being deployed interchangeably. "Post-punk" became differentiated from "new wave" after their styles perceptibly narrowed.

The genera itself being foundationally typified by groups such as Siouxsie and the Banshees, Wire, Public Image Ltd, the Pop Group, Cabaret Voltaire, Magazine, Pere Ubu, Joy Division, Talking Heads, Devo, Gang of Four, the Slits, the Cure, and the Fall. But not limited to. And has spun off many sub genera such as alternative rock, dark-wave, cold-wave, synth-wave, synth-pop, and some indie rock

A fun cover of a track originally performed by Cliff Richards. Time to let out your inner Rik and scream for Porl and Cliff.

Something I missed a couple years back and only just now managed to stumble upon. Though I'm definitely liking it so far.

I've only listened to the first few tracks off of it. But so far it has a nice mellow sort of feel to it.

This is officially the band's debut album I think. They put out a number of eps over recent years. But this is the first full album. Very dark and mellow. One of the first tracks to really grab me from the album was shadows. I get a very mild Dead Can Dance vibe off of them.

If you like mellow dark and ambient then this will be right up your alley. San Diego artist Vestron Vulture has pumped out content like a machine. Disembodied whispers and howls reverberating in the void as the synths blare.

Ghost Dance just released a new album! Looks to be their first bandcamp release. But don't let that fool you. They're eldergoth, been around 40+ years. Listening through it right now and so far its great.

A good new mellow album released by Korine. They definitely have a vibe like "the cure" while still being their own thing.
