Neoclassical Dark Wave is a genre within the Dark Wave movement. It is distinct from academic Neoclassical music, though the latter continues to influence some bands in the Dark Wave music scene.
In the middle of the 1980s, rock- and post-punk groups such as Dead Can Dance (Within the Realm of a Dying Sun) and In the Nursery (Stormhorse), laid the foundations of this genre.
Inspired by early music and modern classical, Neoclassical Dark Wave combines an atmospheric, orchestral approach with the dark and melancholy aesthetics of Dark Wave. Neoclassical Dark Wave makes extensive use of orchestral elements, typically where budget permits; many bands utilize orchestra-derived synthesizer samples, while some better-known groups such as Elend make use of chamber orchestras and other acoustic instruments. Vocals in the subgenre can vary; many Neoclassical Dark Wave groups make use of opera- or madrigal-like vocals are seen in the genre, as are purely instrumental groups. Several bands in the subgenre are notable for a martial approach, including heavy use of snare drum and militaristic themes.
