Progressive rock

Argent is a Progressive rock act. Their sound grew out of Hardrock, Russ Ballard and The Zombies. Those roots explain a lot about how Argent arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Traffic, Wishbone Ash, Jethro Tull, James Gang and Manfred Mann's Earth Band, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Mother Love Bone, Phish, Jellyfish, Charlie and Epitaph, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 37 connections around Argent, reaching back through Hardrock and forward to Mother Love Bone.
