biography
A rather conceptual indie band -- one that's been compared more than once to Joy Division -- British Sea Power is a quartet from Brighton, England, comprising members named Hamilton, Noble, Yan, and Wood. Formed in the late 2000, their live shows began to receive notice early on, thanks in no small part to the large stuffed birds that perched on-stage and the militaristic uniforms worn by the bandmembers. Rough Trade's Geoff Travis was taken aback by one of the group's (literally) wild performances and signed them; by the end of 2001, they had two singles in the racks: "Fear of Drowning" on Golden Chariot and "Remember Me" on Rough Trade. The group released its critically acclaimed debut The Decline of British Sea Power in 2003. Open Season arrived in 2005, followed by Do You Like Rock Music? in early 2008. The following year, British Sea Power lent its signature post-punk atmospherics to director Robert Flaherty's bleak, 1934 film Man of Aran, composing a complete soundtrack for the movie to be included on the DVD, as well as performing the piece in its entirety at a number of screenings. ~ Andy Kellman, All Music Guide

- not many people have heard of this band but i dont really care becuase i've found it! I heard it on some strange international between the stations channel on the radio. I heard Waving flags and i looked them up. All there songs are both a good beat and fresh. Like a zip locked sandwhich for lunch, its really fresh!
