Days of Sorrow - Wild World (1986)



I'd be blowing it if I didn't share some minimal new wave. I am not really an expert on the movement, what started it or why. I don't want to make an ass of myself and fill in the backstory without knowing anything about it, but all I know is there is a lot of it out there. It always seems to be accompanied by a sullen vocal style with, depressed lyrics, and very minimal instruments. The best is when one of those instruments ends up being a synth.

When you wanna see how much a synth can do on it's own, just sit a depressed young adult with no money down in front of one and maybe give them a sampler.

It's kind of like the synth pop equivalent to black metal?
