Athlete

Athlete (MySpace) is a four-piece band from Deptford UK who debuted in 2003 with Vehicles and Animals. I am yet to find anybody else I know who likes them. Lead singer Joel Pott has a very melancholic and angsty style which makes Athlete an emotional version of the Coldplay-like music which is a very common sound these days. Still very much under-rated.
