Glasvegas

Indie rock
Indie rock

Glasvegas is a Indie rock act. Their sound grew out of Friendly Fires, Kings of Leon, Metallica, Oasis and U2. Those roots explain a lot about how Glasvegas arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as The Zutons, We Were Promised Jetpacks, Jamie T, The Raveonettes and The Enemy, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into The Libertines, Arctic Monkeys, Dancing on My Own, White Lies and The Joy Formidable, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 34 connections around Glasvegas, reaching back through Friendly Fires and forward to The Libertines.
