I think there is a pretty huge barrier between European and North American music, and its really hard (especially for european bands) to gain recognition in both places. Mostly just because the USA dominates so much of the global media. Personally I hardly ever hear of many british bands except the ones that tour alot or are really causing a buzz. But then again, I doubt many people out of Canada know alot of the bands I listen to these days...
Long story short, what are some good English/European, indie/rock bands right now? Besides Muse, the Libertines, and Franz Ferdinand please...
