synth19 Posted October 9 Report Share Posted October 9 Seems like Electro Clash is getting more mainstream recently, bands like Fisherspooner have been embraced by every magazine I can think of (makes me sick they got signed to UK's Ministry of Sound). Anyways, I think the scene is being exploited and turning into a fad....... What do you guys think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

synth19 Posted October 10 Author Report Share Posted October 10 I wouldnt necessarily say it's a fad. Hmmm....well, maybe it is? Alot of bands in the scene have been doing this kind of music for a long time before it was branded "Electroclash." Bands like Ladytron and others have been scapegoated into this genre.... Now that the media has goten a hold of the term "electroclash," and called it "the next big thing," there will most likley be a backlash and the music will return to obscurity. The thing that pisses me off is there are alot of PROGRESSIVE electronic pop bands out there, and I know they will be thrown in with the electroclashers out there.......and their music wont be given a chance.

synth19 Posted October 10 Author Report Share Posted October 10 It's still around, and probably going to die soon (now that newsweek, GQ, and Time have featured it in recent months).
