    Also worth a mention: Therapy?

    Picturehouse are a good aswell, but they're songs are a bit too happy for me saw them at witnness.
    Jack L is also pretty good, saw him at witnness aswell, very powerful voice, sounds like hes a professionally trained singer.

    I dunno bout this one, the obvious ones I suppose: U2, Thin Lizzy, Cranberries(!?!)
    My all-time favourite Irish band though had to a band called Blink. Remember them? Not Blink 182 now but the original (Actually the Irish band are the reason the American band had to add the "182")
    Had some cool songs "Cello" and "Going To Nepal" from the first album "A Map Of the Universe" "The Girl With the Backward Skin" and "Baby You Broke My Heart But You Know That I Don't Hate You For It" are some of the best songs I have heard. A few of the lyrics were pretty surreal "Deep, deep deeper than your deepest ocean. When sheep sleep they wake up with some funny notions" If you get a chance to check them out then do.

    Brought out two albums and meant to be working on a third I think! Oh happy day!
