Within the United States, the term has since become applied indiscriminately to any band, with attitude, that did not embrace the simplistic, loud-fast playing style, whether that meant that their sound was Disco-inspired, Funk, Reggae, Ska, or Experimental.Template:Fact Thus, The Police, The Records, the B-52s, and The (English) Beat are equally considered New Wave, even though certain keyboard-led bands of the early 1980s, such as Duran Duran and Depeche Mode are considered the most iconic bands of the genre.
When MTV started broadcasting in 1981, the music encompassed by this broader definition of New Wave got a boost as many music videos were of this genre.
