Hooks, riffs, catchy melodies, and walls upon walls of guitars sum up The Cells' style pretty well.  Catchy hard rock to the untrained ear, The Cells also boast elements of punk-pop, power pop, and even a bit of arena rock.

Fun Fact: "Let It Be Me" is not the only Everly Brothers cover the band has done - in fact, their 1997 album on Matador Records, National Chain, featured a version of "Oh, What A Feeling."
