Young Guns

Young Guns is an act on the Starverb influence map. Their sound grew out of There for Tomorrow, Bullet for My Valentine, Wind-up Records, Enter Shikari and The Swellers. Those roots explain a lot about how Young Guns arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as You Me at Six, Mallory Knox, Kids in Glass Houses, Breakaway and Twin Atlantic, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into We Are the Ocean, Don Broco, Bon Jovi, Guns N' Roses and Funeral for a Friend, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 42 connections around Young Guns, reaching back through There for Tomorrow and forward to We Are the Ocean.
