Info about The Margarets
This text is borrowed without permission from Tom over at Indie-MP3.co.uk:
The Margarets are another in the long line of Swedish bands playing music inspired by the UK music scene of the 1980's (The Garlands/Liechtenstein/Days etc). They formed in September 2006 playing their first gig a month later.
Despite being Swedish the songs are quintessentially English such as Cockney Life with singer John's vocals sounding like Gregory Webster from The Razorcuts/Sportique. There is more than a hint of Subway records here as well and comparisons could be made with The Chesterfields for starters.
Even the band name gives the effect of England with it's pastures green and church spires glistening in the sunlight. Songs with titles like Countryside just give further ammunition to those impressions. If you like bands like aforementioned and the likes of The Relationships or Celestial then you will enjoy these tunes.
