About This Tool
Darkwave appeared as a musical genre in the mid-1980s. It mainly described the new wave music with dark complexes that flooded the German music scene at that time and emphasized the synthesizer or electronic element in the music. Perhaps the first famous darkwave band should be Project Pitchfork. The Leipzig Wave Gotik Music Festival held every June is a grand festival for dark music fans all over the world.
The famous Deine Lakaien is also one of the representative bands. These darkwave bands deeply influenced other music genres. If you are interested in this special rock genre, you can randomly find more great bands here, the random tool collected 200 best gothic rock bands or artists.
