歷史

Origins and early development

Post-punk is a subgenre and era of rock music that emerged in late 1977 in the wake of punk rock. The concept was outlined by jon savage in his "new musick" editorial for Sounds magazine in November 1977, and an earlier use of the term appeared in a 1976 interview in the new york poetry magazine Contact. Early post-punk bands such as siouxsie and the banshees and public image ltd. achieved commercial success in 1978 with debut singles reaching the top ten of the uk chart.

Evolution or diversification

Musicians departed from punk's raw simplicity and adopted a broader experimental approach, incorporating avant-garde sensibilities and non-rock influences. Artists drew on german krautrock and experimented with funk electronic music jazz and dance music, and employed production techniques from dub and disco. Post-punk artists also established independent record labels created visual art staged multimedia performances and produced fanzines. Regional scenes developed across europe, including the netherlands' ultra movement germany's neue deutsche welle spain's la movida madrileña and coldwave scenes in france poland and belgium, alongside soviet and yugoslav new wave. The original post-punk era emerged in parallel with the no wave and industrial music scenes and by the mid-to-late 1980s post-punk had largely dissipated.

Cultural or musical significance

Post-punk provided a foundation for british new pop and contributed to the second british invasion in the united states. It influenced the development of numerous alternative and independent genres including gothic rock neo-psychedelia dark wave dance-punk jangle pop ethereal wave dream pop and shoegaze. During the 2000s and 2010s post-punk influences reappeared in various regional scenes and in contemporary indie rock movements such as the dance-punk and post-punk revival.
