Heavy metal

Scorpions is a Heavy metal act. Their sound grew out of Edguy, AWOLNATION, The Everly Brothers, The Shadows and The Rolling Stones. Those roots explain a lot about how Scorpions arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Whitesnake, Europe, UFO, Def Leppard and Deep Purple, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Judas Priest, Therion, Bonde do Rolê, Bon Jovi and Mötley Crüe, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 75 connections around Scorpions, reaching back through Edguy and forward to Judas Priest.
