Camel

Progressive rock
Progressive rock

Camel is a Progressive rock act. Their sound grew out of Chris Rainbow and Rupert Hine. Those roots explain a lot about how Camel arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Emerson, Lake & Palmer, King Crimson, Eloy, Genesis and Focus, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Survival, Peter Lindgren, Pallbearer, Let's Get It: Thug Motivation 101 and Marillion, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 28 connections around Camel, reaching back through Chris Rainbow and forward to Survival. Follow any of those threads to keep travelling the influence between bands and genres on Starverb.
