The development of new wave can simultaneously be understood as an extension of, and a reaction to, punk music. Early new wave was, in some ways, a rebranding of punk (especially in the United States), but the genre quickly became its own thing, melding the punk approach to noise and vocals with some of the developments in synth pop and other adjacent genres.
