1963 Punch 20 Feb. 285/1 Perhaps she's New Wavish enough to scorn love.

1974 Publishers Weekly 25 Nov. 47/1 Malzberg is rather on the New Wavish side, writing ‘speculative’ rather than straight science fiction.

1997 Rolling Stone 15 May 112/3 Sleater-Kinney expand on the prodigious racket barely contained on Call the Doctor, adding a New Wavish edge (guitarist and vocalist Corin Tucker's warbly vibrato often recalls Go-Go's era Belinda Carlisle).
