• Ethereal_wave abstract "Ethereal wave, also called ethereal darkwave, ethereal goth or simply ethereal, is a subgenre of dark wave music and is variously described as "gothic", "romantic" and "otherworldly". Developed in the early 1980s in the UK as an outgrowth of gothic rock, ethereal was mainly represented by 4AD bands such as Cocteau Twins and early guitar-driven Dead Can Dance.“Known for its slick, gauzy package design and quasi-Gothic bands invariably described as "Ethereal" (q.v. Cocteau Twins), the label did have an unpredictable streak.” – Ben Sisario, The Pixies' DoolittleIn the second half of the 1980s, the genre continued to develop in the United States and was primarily associated with C'est La Mort Records that featured bands such as Area (later The Moon Seven Times/Lanterna) and Heavenly Bodies, a band formed by ex-members of Dead Can Dance and This Mortal Coil.The defining characteristic of the style is the use of effect-laden guitar soundscapes, based on minor key tonality (which creates a serious, dark and wistful atmosphere), frequently post-punk-oriented bass lines and high register female vocals (sometimes with hard-to-decipher lyrical content), often closely intertwined with the dreaminess of pre-Raphaelite imagery.“The Ethereal tradition began with singers like […] Siouxsie Sioux. Later came Liz Fraser, shrouding herself in an unworldly aura of child-woman innocence.” – Simon Reynolds, SPIN magazineThe website gothicsubculture.com describes the genre as being "most characterized by soprano female vocals combined with […] bass, lead guitar, and drums which creates a surreal, angelic or otherworldly effect, e.g. Love Spirals Downwards, Cocteau Twins. Ethereal music often […] uses the female voice as an instrument. Sometimes, a male vocalist will also be in the group along with the female vocalist. Even more rarely will there be only a male vocalist, but it is still considered ethereal if the mood created is otherworldly and surreal. […] It is currently a small division of music, and people who like this music are often called Goths."Although post-punk bands, such as The Durutti Column, The Cure, Siouxsie and the Banshees and The Chameleons, are often credited with inspiring later ethereal groups (e.g. This Ascension), the Cocteau Twins are considered the initiators of the genre.“The band began to ditch the spikiness of ‚Garlands‘, as [Robin] Guthrie developed a lush cascading guitar technique, creating a rich texture and an otherworldly feel. […] From this point on, music journalists found it impossible to describe the band's work without resorting to the word ‚Ethereal‘.” – Peter Buckley, The Rough Guide to Rock“[…] it was the Cocteau Twins, whose debut album, Garlands, appeared on 4AD in 1982, who proved to be the label's first major artists and did much to crystallize 4AD's image in its early years as an other-worldly purveyor of Ethereal music by reclusive groups who preferred the shadows to the light.” – Rick Poynor, Vaughan Oliver: Visceral Pleasures“The Cocteau Twins remain ground zero for the Ethereal subgenre and […] gave Romantigoths a soundtrack for clubbbing.” – Liisa Ladouceur, Encyclopedia GothicaWithin the gothic/dark wave subculture, the genre reached a higher level of popularity throughout the 1990s, especially in the first half of the decade. During this time, ethereal wave and genres such as dream pop and shoegazing interacted with each other, with many artists being heavily influenced by 4AD bands, such as the aforementioned Cocteau Twins and This Mortal Coil, as well as early All About Eve, The Chameleons, and Siouxsie and the Banshees. The American ethereal band Siddal, for example, described their music as follows: "A product of influences such as the Cocteau Twins, Low, Slowdive, The Cure, and Dead Can Dance, use a blend of ambient music, shoegazer style guitars, synths and sequenced rhythms." Other examples of these overlaps include Hugo Largo, Chimera, An April March, Miranda Sex Garden, Lovesliescrushing, Cranes, and Rose Chronicles. Members of British shoegazing group Slowdive have repeatedly cited being influenced by bands such as The Cure, Cocteau Twins, and Siouxsie and the Banshees.Since the 1990s, ethereal is strongly associated with the Projekt label, which had already used the term in 1987. The label features some of the most well-known names of the US scene (Love Spirals Downwards, Lycia, etc.). Other record labels that featured some of the leading lights of the movement were Tess Records (This Ascension, Trance to the Sun, Autumn), Bedazzled (Siddal, early Mistle Thrush, An April March) and Yvy Records (Faith & Disease, Ninth Circle). Many of these labels and artists ceased activities over the years or changed the musical direction, incorporating elements of other genres such as ambient, trip hop and drum & bass.More recent bands who represent the genre are Autumn's Grey Solace, Tearwave, Melodyguild and Mercury's Antennae.".
