Cyberpunk music

Cyberpunk is not a music genre per se, but more a term that can be used to describe music that incorperates Cyberpunk like musical or lyrical concepts. The first usage of the term for a style of music was the Voivod's 'Nothingface', a psychedelic thrash metal album inspired by William Gibson's Neuromancer novel. Genres that can also be described as cyberpunk influenced include Industrial, Noize, Intelligent dance music, EBM, Futurepop and Drum and Bass.

Worth noting (if only thematically) is Billy Idol's album, 'Cyberpunk', which incorporates numerous overt Cyberpunk themes (including a bit of the Hacker's manifesto, and a song called Neuromancer).
