Guided by Voices

Indie rock
Indie rock

Guided by Voices is a Indie rock act. Their sound grew out of R.E.M., Sonic Youth, The Who, David Bowie and The Rolling Stones. Those roots explain a lot about how Guided by Voices arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Superchunk, Dinosaur Jr., Yo La Tengo, Teenage Fanclub and The Clean, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Keith Murray, We Are Scientists, Los Campesinos!, Albert Hammond, Jr. and Car Seat Headrest, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 57 connections around Guided by Voices, reaching back through R.E.M. and forward to Keith Murray.
