Sugarcult

Emo
EmoPunk rock

Sugarcult is a Emo and Punk rock act. Their sound grew out of The Knack, The Romantics, A Hard Day's Night, Fearless Records and Chris Shiflett. Those roots explain a lot about how Sugarcult arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as American Hi-Fi, SR-71, Allister, Mest and Sum 41, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into 5 Seconds of Summer, Motion City Soundtrack, Good Charlotte and Sleeping with Sirens, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 43 connections around Sugarcult, reaching back through The Knack and forward to 5 Seconds of Summer. Follow any of those threads to keep travelling the influence between bands and genres on Starverb.
