    Im hoping some of the music enthusiasts here can help with this rather simple question that has been bugging me for the last couple of hours.

    Im trying to remember the name of a band that has come to light in the last 5 years or so. They play ambient indie style music along the same lines as Sigur Ros. I seem to think they are Canadian.

    I know they have had a hit in the last couple of years but don't have much more to go on.

    Any ideas?

    All help appreciated as its driving me mental

    Arcarde Fire? They are a great band, but you may want to brush up on your describing skills if you think they are anything near to Sigur Ros…

    I was going to say is funeral is a much listened to album in my collection. I like it a lot more than neon.

    First heard it here and havnt heard it since. Can only remember the background vocals, hence the ambient reasoning

    I love both Funeral and Neon Bible, but 'keep the car running' is my fav track.
