Ethereal wave (também chamado de etheric wave, ethereal goth ou ethereal) é um termo que descreve um sub-gênero da música dark wave.^[1]^[2] Ethereal wave é descrito como "gótico", "romântico" e "sobrenatural".^[3]^[4] Foi desenvolvido no início dos anos 80^[5]^[6]^[7] no Reino Unido como consequência do rock gótico. O ethereal wave foi representado principalmente por bandas da gravadora 4AD^[8] como Cocteau Twins,^[9] This Mortal Coil e Dead Can Dance.^[10]^[11]

Na segunda metade da década de 1980 o gênero continuou a se desenvolver nos Estados Unidos, atrelado à estilos como dream pop, rock alternativo, música ambiente e indie.

O ethereal wave foi uma das principais inspirações para a cena britânica de dream pop e shoegaze do final dos anos 80.^[12] Há sobreposições entre estes gêneros.^[11]

"L'ethereal wave s'est développée à partir du gothic rock, et tire ses origines principalement de la musique de Siouxsie and the Banshees (les Cocteau Twins s'en sont fortement inspirés, ce qui se ressent dans leur premier album Garlands, sorti en 1982). Le genre s'est développé surtout autour des années 1983-1984, avec l'émergence de trois formations majeures: Cocteau Twins, This Mortal Coil et Dead Can Dance... Cela est rendu par des effets d'écho, de reverb et de delay très imposants sur les guitares... On relève une prédominance d'un chant féminin haut perché ou très ample et de voix masculines soufflées, douces at contemplatives. Les paroles sont parfois difficilement compréhensibles... L'ethereal wave (et notamment les Cocteau Twins) a grandement influencé le shoegaze et la dream pop. Les labels principaux promouvant le genre sont 4AD et Projekt Records."
