Il sound musicale dei Built To Spill può essere definito indie rock di matrice americana con chitarre distorte, ma con riferimenti alla tradizione del country e del folk americano.
Trai gli artisti che negli ultimi due decenni hanno dichiarato apertamente di essersi ispirati ai Buil to Spill si possono citare: The Strokes, Deathcab for Cuties e Modest Mouse.
