Slowdive is a Indie rock act. Their sound grew out of My Bloody Valentine, Cocteau Twins, Dream pop, The Charlottes and The Sight Below. Those roots explain a lot about how Slowdive arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as My Bloody Valentine, Lush, Ride, LSD and the Search for God and Chapterhouse, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Narrow Head, Velour 100, Vaadat Charigim, SRSQ and Whirl, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 115 connections around Slowdive, reaching back through My Bloody Valentine and forward to Narrow Head.
