Garage rockIndie rockPsychedelic rock

Black Lips is a Garage rock and Indie rock act. Their catalogue also touches Psychedelic rock and Punk rock. Their sound grew out of Black Monk Time and GG Allin. Those roots explain a lot about how Black Lips arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Harlem, Ty Segall, Parquet Courts, Tijuana Panthers and Ron Gallo, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Twin Peaks, Hinds, Yacht, Deer Tick and Los Lobos, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 13 connections around Black Lips, reaching back through Black Monk Time and forward to Twin Peaks.
