They run in the same orbit as Elastica, Oasis, Gorillaz, Liam Gallagher and Manic Street Preachers, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Edyta Bartosiewicz, Jubilee, twen, Nadine Shah and Total Life Forever, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation.
