Probot

Probot is an act on the Starverb influence map. Their sound grew out of Santana, Trouble, Venom, Motörhead and Death. Those roots explain a lot about how Probot arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Prong, Corrosion of Conformity, Metallica, Ozzy Osbourne and Rollins Band, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Foo Fighters, Soulfly, Cathedral, Venom and Conrad Lant, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 47 connections around Probot, reaching back through Santana and forward to Foo Fighters. Follow any of those threads to keep travelling the influence between bands and genres on Starverb.
