Indie rock

The Go-Betweens is a Indie rock act. Their sound grew out of Sleater-Kinney, The Monkees, The Velvet Underground, Television and Wire. Those roots explain a lot about how The Go-Betweens arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Felt, Lloyd Cole, The Wedding Present, You Am I and Julian Cope, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Piano Magic, Ivy, Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever, Vaadat Charigim and Drop Nineteens, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 23 connections around The Go-Betweens, reaching back through Sleater-Kinney and forward to Piano Magic.
