The Pale Saints! One of my favourites from that time, along with Ultra Vivid Scene and Galaxie 500. I went to school with a guy who was related to the owner of 4AD, so he used to get all the stuff before release... we were way too cool for school

My recommendation to add to the thread is Lowlife
Galaxie 500 - fantastic, haven't come across anyone else who's actually heard of them before. On Fire is a top album.

I like the fact that Pandora thinks I'm in the US. After feeding it enough [...] Audioslave...
Another vote for Modest Mouse, and whilst on that vein, FireHose.
Pandora....I thought you could no longer access it in the UK???
Another big Galaxie 500 fan here. If you like them you'll like Low.

I really like what I've heard by Thomas Tantrum . The new Ting Tings! Maybe...
