ARCTIC MONKEYS
Arctic Monkeys were already massive way before they inked a deal with Domino in June 2005 with sell out tours, masses of fans subscribes to their blog and dedicated fans who knew there lyrics to famous hits such as 'Teddy Picker' word for word. They have became one of the U.K.'s biggest bands of the 21st century and are of course the most popular indie-rock band.



THE STROKES
The Strokes are one of the few indie-rock bands from America that have been just as popular in the UK, the five piece have had international success. Ever since their debut in 2001 they have gone from strength to strength with a mix of speed percussion, guitars and realatable lyrics.



THE LIBERTINES

Starting off with one aim 'to be the best band in the world' back in 1996 The Libertines showed the public a much more rebellious side to indie rock. Even though they didn't have chart success the bands controversial front man Pete Doherty managed to attract flocks of fans to intimate gigs around the UK.
