Comes from words necrosis, meaning death, and punk, which is a popular suffix used in science fiction subgenres.
Necropunk is a steampunk-like subculture in science fiction that refers to a post-apocalyptic world in which there can be a lot of unknown scientific technology, such as weird looking vehicles, utopian architecture, artificial body parts, robots, androids and even man-made photosynthesis. Necropunk combines many elements from other -punk subcultures like steampunk, cyberpunk and biopunk, but is definitely its own genre. A good example of typical necropunk is Mad Max movie series.
