Best Indie Band Country?

Stone Birds · 07-25-2010, 03:25 PM

well i would say america but america doesn't have a true music scene, it's better to look at the 5 main areas of america or just the states individually.

but if i had to say a country in specific it'd probably be scotland, and my reason is i LOVE the scottish accent

Canada. Reason being most of my favorite bands are Canadian.

Per capita though Iceland has an incredible DIY indie music scene.

There's a really good scene in the UK at the moment I think, it just hasnt become that widely exposed yet. It is Indie in the purest sense of the word. Bands like Fair Ohs, Munch Munch, PENS, Graffiti Island, Race Horses, Spectrals, Lets Wrestle, Cold Pumas, Male Bonding, Peepholes, Pheromoans, Wetdog etc are all putting out interesting stuff. I do prefer American and Canadian acts at the moment, but it is there and pretty vibrant if you have a little delve.

I really like Travis...but I'm not sure if they're alternative rock or indie/country......love their song "My eyes"

Given that AMA Hits is an indie music website, I see that there are a lot of good indie bands/musicians from all over the world. There are a few from the UK and Canada that stick out in my mind.

I'm definitely going to give this one to Canada.
