Indie rock
Indie rock

Sleater-Kinney is a Indie rock act. Their sound grew out of Siouxsie and the Banshees, Kids in America, Heatmiser, Heavens to Betsy and St. Vincent. Those roots explain a lot about how Sleater-Kinney arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Screaming Females, Liz Phair, The Gits, Throwing Muses and Veruca Salt, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into The Go-Betweens, The B-52's, Eddie Vedder, John Doe and Pearl Jam, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 48 connections around Sleater-Kinney, reaching back through Siouxsie and the Banshees and forward to The Go-Betweens.
