The Go-Gos started as a Hard Core Punk band and shifted later to what genre?

Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

The question asks about the genre shift of the Go-Go's after starting as a Hard Core Punk band.
Option 1: 'R & B (Rhythm & Blues)' is not accurate for the Go-Go's career arc; their style did not move toward R&B at the time of their rise, so this choice mischaracterizes their genre evolution.
Option 2: 'New Wave Pop' correctly identifies the band's notable transition from hardcore punk roots to a more melodic, catchy, and commercially successful new wave/pop sound in the late 1970s and early 1980s.
Option 3: 'Death Metal' would be a dramatic departure from their actual trajectory; there is no historical basis for them embracing death metal.
Option 4: 'Glam Rock' is also not aligned with the Go-Go's progression; glam rock was more characteristic of late 70s UK scenes and not the path the band took as they moved into mainstream pop-inflected new wave.
Thus, considering the band's documented shift from hardcore punk toward accessible, radio-friendly new wave pop, option 2 is the correct framing of their evolution, while the other options misstate or misplace their stylistic development.
