Underappreciated great British bands

[Freddie the Greek]

Agree with Budgie, my Dad is a big fan of them and got me into them.

I would say these lot:

"A wanna go to Hebburn never been there before"

 

[10 Gary Rowells]

The Only Ones
The Sound
A House (yes, I know, Irish)

 

[Mick Dundee]

They were hardly small, but Idlewild should have been playing much bigger venues and selling many many more albums than they actually did. They piss all over the likes of Snow Patrol etc!

 

[Arkle]

The Wedding Present
Teenage Fanclub
Super Furry Animals
Echo & the Bunnymen (from 1980 to 1985)
The Auteurs

 

[Tex]

The correct answer is always The Chameleons, same as last week and the week before when this subject came up.

 

[James]

CRIBS

Unfairly and stupidly lumped into the indie-landslide music of the early/mid 2000's by a lot of people.

Los Campesinos! are another one like that who've changed and progressed into something excellent.

 

[chunkyshanhawk53]

Beady Eye

 

[parm]

kitchens of distinction
super furry animals
Sleaford mods

 

[redandwhiterob]

At the risk of looking very uncool I will plump for erasure

Disagree. The music on the first album is class, the vocal is woeful. Works live though. (Seen them four times and enjoyed each and every gig).

This must be the first music thread in which Kitchens of Distinction get mentioned by someone other than me... anyway, Art Brut.

 

[Cappuccino Kid]

The Rakes
Ash
