The first and most popular single off their self titled debut album, which dropped in 2002, just a few years after these guys graduated high school.

Originally from Leeds, The Music has headlined sold out shows ever since, especially in the UK, where this album reached number 4 in the UK Billboard Top Ten.

They went through a short hiatus while singer and guitar player Robert Harvey dealt with his drug usage as a teen. He’s since dealt with those inner demons, and The Music is now back, releasing catchy progressive rock anthems, and rallying their avid followers in the UK. Good to see you back. Now, hope to see you in the US some day.

Lighter sound: Mew – The Zookeeper’s Boy

Grittier sound: The Sunshine Underground – Put You In Your Place
