Blur. Because no one in the US knows who the fuck I am talking about when I say Blur. I have to say "They do that WOOHOO song".

Chas & Dave

>CND? CND?
>WE'RE NOT GOING ON AFTER CHAS & DAVE

Sleaford Mods

The Kinks

As an East Midlander, I can confirm that these guys sum up the East Midlands better than anyone else

being from the east midlands as well i should probably get around to listening to them at some point

>Half Man Half Biscuit

You should, they're really good

>Weird, innit

any Canterbury scene band. My vote is for Hatfield and the North

The Fall

It'd be interesting to know where everyone posting these answers are from. There sure is a range of opinions here on what quintessential Englishness is

The Kinks
Soft Machine

Funny innit. They play that song at just about every sports event but not one American can tell you who it's by.

early Arctic Monkeys

Posted these. Lived in the UK til' I was 13. Live in the states now.

I suppose this thread is a good place to ask if anyone listens to The Neurotics

COW SON
I love that song desu

Modest Mouse
Like, just the way the lead singer talks and shit.

the fall, in an alternate history where manchester is the political and economic center of the UK

Gang of Four obviously

Genesis

Sgt. Peppers

Undoubtedly The Fall

SEE YA MATE
YEAH, SEE YA MATE

My immediate thoughts as well.

Half Man Half Biscuit are kind of like The Fall but with an obsession with 80s kids shows, obscure sportsmen and nursery rhymes
