British Bands of the 00s???

[perthperson]

Beta Band? Three Eps, anyway.

The Aliens - ex Beta Band chaps - brilliant

Also The Twilight Sad, Frightened Rabbit and Broken Records (all Scottish, it being Burns night)

 

[Refused as fuck]

Reuben, Hell Is For Heroes, My Vitriol, Million Dead, Kids Near Water, King Biscuit Time, Life Without Buildings, Ligament, The Long Blondes, Oceansize, Rachel Unthank & The Winterset, South.

I've been playing The Midnight Organ a hell of a lot this year. Great album.

 

[El Jefe]

Emo

Actually, I'm pretty sure Ligament didn't even make it into the 2000s, did they? the album was mid-late 90s

 

[Johnny Vodka]

How about 'The Streets'

Formed in 2000, first two albums were pretty good.

Yup, I'd say The Streets are the best British act to emerge this decade. That bloke Skinner has two classic albums behind him anyway.

I'm in.

I'm allocating you the bagpipes and the steel drums. Unless you can play them.
