RFI: European bands doing "indie" pop-rock

Message Bookmarked

This inspired by my adoration of Eskobar's Love Strikes, Erik Faber's Century and The Rasmus's First Day My Life, three singles from the last few months that have been doing that sort of rock music that gets called indie in the UK, and do it very well. Embrace, Feeder and (particularly) Coldplay probably imagine(d) they sound like this. Europop has been high on my, and many other ILMers list of loves for a long time, and it's not hard to find the best stuff.

So, calling ILMers from the continent to give me LOTS OF EUROROCK to celebrate my recent move to luvvly broadband,

From Scandinavia:
Kent
Saybia
Poor Rich Ones

All of them have at least some similarities to the Coldplay/Travis school..

Soundtrack of Our Lives to thread...

Kent have been favourites of mine for years - not heard the others, will check them out. Anything big from Norway in the last few years along the same lines?

Don't like Soundtrack Of Our Lives, though may have been listening to the wrong tracks.
