Lydia Lunch

Industrial
IndustrialPunk rock

Lydia Lunch is a Industrial and Punk rock act. Their sound grew out of HTRK, Alan Vega, Lou Reed, Exene Cervenka and Henry Rollins. Those roots explain a lot about how Lydia Lunch arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Teenage Jesus and the Jerks, Mars, DNA, The Pop Group and Public Image Ltd., sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Elysian Fields, Melt-Banana, Sonic Youth, Nels Cline and Nicolas Jaar, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 24 connections around Lydia Lunch, reaching back through HTRK and forward to Elysian Fields.
