Indie rock

The Maccabees is a Indie rock act. Their sound grew out of Mystery Jets, Peace, Edwyn Collins, The Big Moon and The Drums. Those roots explain a lot about how The Maccabees arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Jamie T, The Vaccines, The Courteeners, The Enemy and We Are Scientists, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Noisettes, Bombay Bicycle Club, The Big Pink, The Drums and Stereophonics, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 35 connections around The Maccabees, reaching back through Mystery Jets and forward to Noisettes.
