Union

Progressive rock
Progressive rock

Union is a Progressive rock act. Their sound grew out of The Beatles and Cheap Trick. Those roots explain a lot about how Union arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Kiss, Ace Frehley, Tesla, Great White and Night Ranger, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Slash, Alice Cooper, Theory of a Deadman, Roger Daltrey and Mötley Crüe, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 42 connections around Union, reaching back through The Beatles and forward to Slash.
