Here’s a list of 80s style and music pages I’m trying to bring awareness to (I’ve edited most of them) and some that have yet to be added. I’ve especially done a lot of work reworking Woodland Goth because there have been examples of style and music fitting that aesthetic since the 80s.
Here’s bands and musicians whose visual styles fit into these 80s era aesthetics:
New Romantic/Synthpop (Japan the Band)
Trad Goth/Batcave (Bauhaus)
Indie (The Smiths)
Post-Punk (Joy Division)
City Pop (Akiko Yano)
New Wave (Devo)
Deathrock (Patricia Morrison)
Cyberpunk (Gary Numan)
Steampunk (Thomas Dolby)
New Romantic/Rococopunk (Adam and the Ants)
Soft Post-Punk (Altered Images)
Baroque Pop (Shelleyan Orphan)
Dreamy (Julee Cruise)
Woodland Goth (Strawberry Switchblade, All About Eve, and Siouxsie Sioux)
I added extra photos for Woodland Goth just to really illustrate that this aesthetic has existed since the 80s.
There are a lot more Punk sub-genres that have existed since the 80s, although they haven’t been listed yet (like Hardcore Punk, though Queercore has thankfully been put amongst aesthetics already).
Edit: I strongly believe all Weirdcore comes from Frank Zappa, Captain Beefheart, The Residents, and Devo.
