Question

Good alternative bands from the uk?

Answer 1

Muse....from the U.K. and alternitive, kinda.

Answer 2

The Editors are brilliant, Bloc Party, after that I'm really pushed to think of anyone but there's The Fratellis, The Pigeon Detectives, The Guillemots, The Klaxons, Hot Chip, Mystery Jets - I would also like to throw in The Howling Bells, they're actually Australian but I think they're good, having said that I'm going to go & check up on what they're doing at the moment.  

This link leads to a magazine which is published in Britain, which considers itself 'alternative' (actually they're gigantic sellouts & I haven't bought a copy since Beth Ditto topped the cool chart and they broke with tradition to put Muse on the cover) but it is a good place to start looking into alternative groups.
