Alternative rock
Alternative rockElectronicIndie rock

Phoenix is a Alternative rock and Electronic act. Their catalogue also touches Indie rock, Rap and Rock. Their sound grew out of The Buggles, Sounds of the Universe, Mutya Buena, Cassius and Chairlift. Those roots explain a lot about how Phoenix arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Two Door Cinema Club, Foster the People, Arcade Fire, Grouplove and Atlas Genius, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Coconut Records, The Courtneys, Two Door Cinema Club, Noah and the Whale and Chairlift, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 44 connections around Phoenix, reaching back through The Buggles and forward to Coconut Records.
