Beginning in the late 1970s as an offshoot of disco and punk,
dance-punk is difficult to define. Also sometimes referred to as
disco-punk and funk-punk, it skirts, overlaps, and blurs into other
genres including post-punk, post-disco, new wave, mutant disco, and
synthpop. This book explores the historical and cultural conditions
of the genre as it appeared in the late 1970s and early 1980s and
then again in the early 2000s, and illuminates what is at stake in
delineating dance-punk as a genre. Looking at bands such as Gang of
Four, ESG, Public Image Ltd., LCD Soundsystem, The Rapture, and Le
Tigre, this book examines the tensions between and blurring of the
rhetoric and emotion in dance music and the cynical and ironic
intellectualizing associated with post-punk.
