Soft Play is a Punk rock act. Their sound grew out of Kate Nash and Mike D. Those roots explain a lot about how Soft Play arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as The Chats, Amyl and the Sniffers, Yard Act, Sprints and Sports Team, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Kid Kapichi, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation.
