Pale Saints is an act on the Starverb influence map from Leeds, UK, active 1987–1996. Their sound grew out of Nancy Sinatra, Tom Waits, Primal Scream, Moose and Alison's Halo. Those roots explain a lot about how Pale Saints arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Chapterhouse, Lush, An April March, Cocteau Twins and Ride, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into The Depreciation Guild, Spoonfed Hybrid, Sweet Trip, His Name Is Alive and Luminous Orange, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 51 connections around Pale Saints, reaching back through Nancy Sinatra and forward to The Depreciation Guild.
