Interesting... "Romo" makes me think "new romantic," makes me think of the 80s and goth... I don't know if there's a genuine link there or just punkiebrains. :-)


You wouldn't be far wrong, "Romantic Modernist" is the full name, it was a short lived music scene that apparently only existed in London  for a couple of years after 1997...

It was a sort of new romantic revival, but more from a fasion pov than a musical one, which drew heavily from the New romantic and goth movements, but was sizably influenced by the Britpop/indie scene...

apparently anyway.
