How is that a problem? I'm not having a pop, I'm just curious to know why you're surprised that a newspaper would pick up on a trend in music and run a feature on it. Isn't that just what the media does?
However, The Guardian didn't come up with the term electroclash, that comes (AFAIK) from last year's festival of the same name organised by Larry Tee (www.electroclash.com) and featuring Adult, Godfather etc.. Other names knocking around are synthcore and electropop, which I prefer. But it's *just* a name. TOM > heres the new crazy for summer 2002: > > > >It get's worse.
