Punk rock
Punk rock

Clinic is a Punk rock act. Their sound grew out of Ratatat, Mahogany, Gang of Four, Pional and Silver Apples. Those roots explain a lot about how Clinic arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Crystal Stilts, The Fiery Furnaces, The Wedding Present, The Rapture and Atlas Sound, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into John Cale, The Flaming Lips, Roky Erickson, Arcade Fire and Jarvis Cocker, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 35 connections around Clinic, reaching back through Ratatat and forward to John Cale.
