The Garden

The Garden is an act on the Starverb influence map. Their sound grew out of Killing Joke, Minutemen, The Partisans and Johnny Paycheck. Those roots explain a lot about how The Garden arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Geese, Puzzle, Ugly (UK), Squid and Cola, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Destroy Boys and Nick Simper, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 20 connections around The Garden, reaching back through Killing Joke and forward to Destroy Boys. Follow any of those threads to keep travelling the influence between bands and genres on Starverb.
