Rock

Love is a Rock act. Their sound grew out of She Said She Said, Blue Thumb Records, Rino Sashihara, STU48 and Tim Rose. Those roots explain a lot about how Love arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as The West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band, Jefferson Airplane, Kaleidoscope, The United States of America and Buffalo Springfield, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Lenny Kravitz, The Damned, Karl Wallinger, Sparks and Interstellar Overdrive, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 49 connections around Love, reaching back through She Said She Said and forward to Lenny Kravitz.
