You can compare melodic death bands At the gates ( Slaughter of the soul ), In Flames ( The Jester Race ) with Swedish band Dismember. America has nothing to do with it.

Considering how much influence Slayer had on At the Gates' guitarwork, by their own admission, I'd say that was far from true. I imagine In Flames took plenty of cues from Iron Maiden and other trad metal bands as well.

I'm from Barcelona - Headphones
That was a nice little tune! I'd say it would more fit in late-60's BB's rather than Pet Sounds era, but I do see the resemblance.

I take your word for it ... you are the resident Beach Boys expert of Music Banter.

I think this song is also Beach Boy-esque ... or maybe ABBA meets Phil Spector.

Has Miriam Bryant made it to US music? She is just so good.

I'm surprised nobody mentioned Zara Larsson in this thread. She is very popular now.

OP, try First Aid Kit and The Tallest Man on Earth while you're at it.

Also, a gander at this list might yield good stuff for you.
