Incorrectly classified by some as a one hit wonder (their monster hit Bittersweet Symphony overshadowed everything else they ever did), the Verve developed a beautiful sound that combined Psychedelic, Space Rock and Shoegazing genres. The result was a richly textured and sweet sound that often seemed a little ahead of what was going on around them. Again, like others from Britain, they might find themselves lumped in with the Oasis and Blurs of the world and their potential look from the Hall may go those aforementioned bands instead.
