Duster

Indie rock
Indie rock

Duster is a Indie rock act. Their sound grew out of Codeine, Slowcore, Queens of the Stone Age, Xiu Xiu and Built to Spill. Those roots explain a lot about how Duster arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Valium Aggelein, Helvetia, Eiafuawn, Mazzy Star and Unrecovery, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Horse Jumper of Love, Built to Spill, Make His Ribs Show, Terraplana and Pixies, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 58 connections around Duster, reaching back through Codeine and forward to Horse Jumper of Love. Follow any of those threads to keep travelling the influence between bands and genres on Starverb.
