We scour all the UK forums, sift thru countless Emails, flip thru tons of press kits, Myspace pages, Youtube videos, and random mp3’s so you don’t have to. Here are 7 new bands from “Across the Pond” that are generating some buzz:

Minnaars: Kinda remind me of the Klaxons or the Foals. Lot’s of Hype is to be expected (and they sound good)

Frontiers: This is pretty hot, I definitely approve. The new sound of Nottingham.

Lovvers: Sweet Garage sounding Pop/Punk, they’ll be playing in Seattle @ The Comet on 11/20

Plugs: Definitely a unique sound, this is bleeding edge stuff. Not sure what attracted me to this one. Watch this VIDEO.

A Plastic Rose: Cool new band from Ireland. The boys are a little Emo but they’re not bad.

Bear Driver: A smooth sounding Indie-Pop quartet from Leeds.

Delorean: The band, not the car. Cool band (technically, from Spain). Listen to the song “DELI”.
