...yet you've noticed the nationality of Scottish bands "probably hundreds" of times. That's pretty often.



Anyway, some of the usual suspects are my favorites, specifically Jesus and Mary Chain, Arab Strap, and Mogwai.

I used to listen to this album by Appendix Out all the time:


I guess I discovered it because Drag City released it and it sounded basically like a Scottish version of Palace Brothers or Smog who were in vogue at the time.

Here's them doing a cover of my maybe favorite Pavement song:

Runrig - Loch Lomond is probably the most played scottish song ever. It literally gets played at every occasion as the last song. I ****ing love it. Especially the 'dance'.

Divorce are fantastic. My friend's band has played with them many times in Glasgow, and they're always a treat to see live. I'm surprised and delighted someone on here has heard of them! One of the best bands around here at the moment, for sure.
