The Bravery

The Bravery is an act on the Starverb influence map. Their sound grew out of Gliss, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Razorlight, U2 and The Cars. Those roots explain a lot about how The Bravery arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Hot Hot Heat, We Are Scientists, Cold War Kids, Hard-Fi and Kaiser Chiefs, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into The Dandy Warhols, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 34 connections around The Bravery, reaching back through Gliss and forward to The Dandy Warhols.
