Ever wondered why some of the most popular British scene bands from the 2000s never made it big in America? We're talking about acts that were massive in the UK but barely registered on U.S. soil.
This week, we're diving into four incredible bands that deserved way more American love: Funeral For A Friend, The Horrors, Enter Shikari, and Biffy Clyro.
It's not that these bands lacked talent—they were genuinely ahead of their time. We're exploring what went wrong: bad timing, cultural barriers, and how the post-Britpop ’90s hangover made American audiences skeptical of anything crossing the pond.
Plus, we'll talk about how bands like Bring Me The Horizon eventually cracked the code and what these pioneers taught the next generation about cracking the American market.
