Punk rock

Magazine is a Punk rock act. Their sound grew out of A Certain Ratio, Buzzcocks, Visage, Ultravox and John Foxx. Those roots explain a lot about how Magazine arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Wire, Buzzcocks, Public Image Ltd., Au Pairs and Josef K, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Mansun, China Crisis, Ministry, The Mission and No Fun at All, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 43 connections around Magazine, reaching back through A Certain Ratio and forward to Mansun.
