Blues

The Strypes is a Blues act. Their sound grew out of The Who, The Beatles, The Jam, Elvis Costello and Little Richard. Those roots explain a lot about how The Strypes arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as The Amazons, The Enemy, The Reytons, Arctic Monkeys and Hanni El Khatib, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into The Courteeners, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 37 connections around The Strypes, reaching back through The Who and forward to The Courteeners.
