Default Darkwave in general

Could you put a label of "Avant Garde" to that sort of music? Does it suit with your taste? What you generally think about that?

I would say that it's more Electronic than Avant Garde than anything else. Still, I would say that visitors to this section of the Forums would get more into it than those who go to Electronica considering it's more underground - darker and maybe with some connections to Experimental/Industrial. That's just my opinion.

Does it suit my taste? It does, actually. Some may be surprised, but I have had moments in getting into that sound and liking it.

Darkwave had it's roots in post-punk and spread out to include many other genres over the years including synthpop, neo-classical, industrial, ethereal wave and alternative rock. I see it more as an umbrella term to describe music of a dark and melancholic disposition rather than a genre with a distinctive sound. It could belong in multiple sections but I figure the avant garde/experimental forum wouldn't be a bad place.
