Elastica's brief, angular, and catchy punk rock became a hit on both sides of the Atlantic in 1995.

While the group reworked both the sound and the image of new wave and punk rockers like Adam & the Ants, Wire, The Buzzcocks, and Blondie, the band's songs are more pop-oriented and hook-driven than most of their influences, as heard on their breakthrough hit "Connection" from 1995's Elastica.
