I'm sure there are tons of US bands that make no real sense outside of America, just like I'm sure there are British, Australian, German, Greek, NZ bands that only really make sense in theirs. unfortunately, because Britain and America wield such a large pop cultural pull, we assume that whatever we like on a local level, must make some kind of sense to anyone.
I'm convinced that the Happy Mondays, a great band in my eyes, make absolutely no sense whatsoever the minute they move beyond Dover.
