Donovan who lived in London for a period of time, says the group is inspired by the sound of British rockers: U2, The Verve, Radiohead, The Rolling Stones and The Beatles. He says their sound has evolved over time, and in the early days the band incorporated more electronic influences in their music. Donovan says their current tunes are "a bit stripped down lately." Other artists that have influenced the band include Bob Dylan, Brian Wilson, Johnny Cash and the genres of Motown and Blues. Everyone who has had the pleasure of listening to their songs can already tell, the blend of classic British and American rock taught them well.

Lapush Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I just want a ride
Electric city lights the scene
The color of your eyes
Faux Brazil

Emotion killed its all mine
Mine all mine, yeah
Glowing skin

To cover me

Cover me with your love

The lyrics to Lapush's song Brazil suggest a yearning for adventure, excitement and love. The song sets the scene in a lively city, with electric lights that add to the vibrant ambiance. When the singer mentions "faux Brazil", it could be interpreted as an escape from reality, or perhaps a metaphor for a fantasy world. The line "emotion killed it's all mine" suggests a sense of isolation, loneliness and detachment from the world, which can often happen when one is unable to connect with others emotionally.
