Punk rock
Punk rockRap

L7 is a Punk rock and Rap act. Their sound grew out of Epitaph Records, Butch Vig, The Germs, Belly and Black Flag. Those roots explain a lot about how L7 arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Veruca Salt, The Gits, Mudhoney, Sleater-Kinney and Green River, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Pink, Jack Off Jill, Hi-Standard, Shirley Manson and Hole, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 48 connections around L7, reaching back through Epitaph Records and forward to Pink.
