Influences
Romeo Void, Fleetwood Mac, Johnny Cash, Elton John, ELO, The Association, Tom Petty, The Lemon Pipers, Lindsey Buckingham, Beatles, Neil Finn, Crowded House, Simon and Garfunkel, Jonathan Richman, Human League, Greg Kihn, OMD, Depeche Mode, Sparks, Beach Boys, ABBA, Devo, Blondie, Cars, Gary Numan, Kraftwerk, Modern Lovers, Brian Wilson, Images in Vogue, Leonard Cohen, Echo and the Bunnymen, Page, Soft Cell, New Order, ABC, Heaven 17, Duran Duran, Cabaret Voltaire, Visage, Adam Ant, Talking Heads, Suicide, Nine Inch Nails, Smiths, The Cure, Martha and the Muffins, Daniel Johnston, Trevor Horn, David Bowie, Yellow Magic Orchestra, etc. I am also heavily influenced by the works of various filmmakers. Stanley Kubrick, Jim Jarmusch, Sofia Coppola, George Lucas, Alfred Hitchcock, Tim Burton, David Lynch, etc. ***** My whole musical perspective changed when I discovered The Killers. I was just about ready to give up on modern rock because I found it so boring and two-dimensional. But The Killers made me realize that it's all about writing good songs. People want to sing-along to a good chorus. Thanks to The Killers for renewing my hope!
