Scottish Bands?

Apparently every local-type band in scotland wants to be belle and sabastian, according to my friend who has lived there for three years and my other friend who has been there for about 3 months.
Also, Fionn Regan is great although not a band.

I have only seen one band here that was like this.
My Tiny Robots is a band that Edinburgh's student radio station is really excited.

At least they went out on a high note with possibly their best album, and both of them have done some really good solo work as well. "I wish it was someone else's blood on the johnny" is an opening line no-one else will probably ever top as well, so they can be proud of that too.

Yeah, a third vote for Arab Strap. Just great.
There was a band in the mid-90s called Ganger, who did sort of angular spazzy instrumental rock. I thought they were pretty good. I was a bit gutted when Mogwai blew up internationally and Ganger kind of fizzled and vanished.

Man, thats not even a joke. They are possibly the worst and most overrated band i've heard come out of Scotland for at least the past 5 years.

Both of these are excellent suggestions. The guys from frightened rabbit are pretty cool guys as well, bumped into them at a couple of festivals before.
