Throughout "Connected // Forgotten," the band draws inspiration from legendary 70's works like Pink Floyd and Isao Tomita. Simultaneously, they nod to the indie acts of the 2000s, such as Metronomy and Phoenix. Yet, Blackchords' signature brooding and introspective sound remains a guiding force, ensuring that their music is always distinctly their own.
