'''Pop Revival''' is a subgenre of Indie Rock distinctive of [[The New Tens]] that rose out of mid-2000s [[New Wave]] revival, [[Power Pop]], Indie Pop and the twee bands of the late 80's/early 90's (namely [[Beat Happening]], [[Belle and Sebastian]] and the Sarah Records bands). Pop Revival incorporates elements of [[Music/Rockabilly|Rockabilly]], [[Soul Music|Soul]], [[Surf Rock]], [[Punk Rock]], [[Shoegaze]] and Lo-Fi. The result is something that sounds old, but isn't easily comparable to earlier music. The popularity of Pop Revival coincides with [[Mad Men|a sudden pervasive and unexplained interest in 1960s clothing, music and design]]. The genre is based mainly in [[Los Angeles]], especially Sunset Boulevard and the East Side.
Though many of the genre's pioneers were male, [[Girl Group|Girl Groups]] dominate, as well as [[One-Book Author|many one-off side projects]]. Several older bands such as [[Arctic Monkeys]], The Black Keys, and MGMT have also begun dabbling in the style. Overlaps with Soul Revival.
