I always thought of Television Personalities as proto-twee.

Pretty definitive list, havent heard Rocketship or Tiger Trap but the rest all range from pretty good to excellent.

And i wouldnt call Television Personalities twee, a lot of their stuff for me is too dark for that, though i dont own their entire dicrography granted.

Good call :D

Yeah, I've only got And Don't the Kids Just Love It, so I haven't really got much to go by when it comes to labeling them.

The Vaselines
Beat Happening
Belle and Sebastian
The Pastels
The Field Mice
Shop Assistants
Black Tambourine
Camera Obscura
Talulah Gosh
Heavenly
Tiger Trap
All Darlin'
Another Sunny Day
Dolly Mixture
Hefner
The Flatmates
Poly Styrene
The Unicorns
Jens Lekman
The Aislers Set

and moar that I've probably forgot.

Twee <3

I'd love to die by insane amounts of tweeness.

Here's a few of my favourites:













And last but not least, possibly the most twee band on the planet

i like camera obscura
