They run in the same orbit as Autolux, Electrelane, Interpol, PJ Harvey and Yo La Tengo, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Ryuichi Sakamoto, Tool, Beach Fossils, Shearwater and Juan Son, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation.
