Sadly, a lot of British punk bands. Where is the love? Lightyear are still up there in my most listened to albums. Both of them are absolute gems and their live shows were aweseome. Bands that are signed to British labels like Household Name or Golf are hardly likely to compete with the likes of Drive Thru, Fat Wreck or Kung Fu. And that makes me a sad panda. Scuzz and Kerrang don't do much good for British bands either.
