Butterfly Explosion

Label: None
Genre: Rock

Irish and Swedish bands. I'm a sucker for them. Irish caused I lived there for two years (even saw Bono's house/castle/mansion on a road nicknamed, what else, Millionaire's Row). Swedish cause they have some unexplained disposition to creating great pop music. Is it nature or nurture? Personally, I blame ABBA.

Butterfly Explosion are Irish, are unsigned, and recently played at SXSW. One reviewer names Duran Duran, Sigur Ros, Smashing Pumpkins, and My Bloody Valentine as comparisions. While I reject the MBV link (for reasons we won't go into here), I would add Lush as a strong starting point. "Sophia" will be on a soon-to-be released EP.
