A sweet 6 -piece from Helsinki. Orchestral wall of sound - art rock - indie pop - you name it. Not the official biography but a quick introduction here--
The current line-up since 2004, but the first steps were taken in the turn of the century.
Olli Waris says it all: (www.newmusiccommunity.org interview)
"In the very beginning, 1999, there were two young men called Okko and Tomi. Then a young fellow called Jussi joined them. Pretty soon a young curly-haired guy Olli came along. In 2002 almost as young a man Sampo joined the boys. And after a while a young and a very tall guy called Matti Olavi Töyli jumped in. Suddenly everything was in its right place. The common goal was to… party like hell and get some chicks! Not really! The goal was to make unique pop music that touches every living creature in this planet.
One journalist said: “Underwater Sleeping Society often sounds like Radiohead forgotten in the 60s”. Supposedly that was a good way to put it. There are influences from modern pop/rock and from the 60s and 70s. Besides Radiohead, most of us like also bands/artists like The Beatles, Pink Floyd, The Flaming Lips, Nick Drake… To call it “just” indie rock sounds pretty lame and a bit too fashionable. We'd like to think that it is timeless pop music."
The debut album Future On A Plate (December 2004) got plenty of rave reviews in the national press and got us a lot of gigs - the CD is sold out and remains a collectors edition. All Other Lights Go Out, our 2nd album released early 2007, surprised us all by charting at 13 here in Finland. Asko of 22-Pistepirkko and Aku Rannila co-produced that one. We played some 70 shows in 2007 including shows in Germany, Russia, Switzerland and Austria. In November 2007 we started to make new songs and spring of 2008 was pretty much spent at Seawolf Studios, located on an island 15 minutes outside Helsinki. The new album is titled The Dead Vegas, mixed by Kalle Gustafsson Jerneholm, Mattias Nyberg and Hans Olsson and mastered by Fred Kevorkian. In Autumn 2008 we did a 20-date tour of Finland + some gigs in Sweden, Eastern Europe and Germany (Popkomm). The Dead Vegas will be out in several countries this year, check the blog for updates! Join us in Facebook and Last.fm too (banners on the left).
‘The Dead Vegas’ is an effective collection of bittersweet indie pop songs, rich on Weltschmerz and touching on the same indie nerve as UK acts like Editors and Doves with peaks in grandiose ‘Counting Stars’, semi-psychedelic ballad ‘Body Blues’ with its spacey chorus and power-pop gem ‘Painting The Dead’...
...Until another such band prove otherwise, they will be “the” Finnish indie band in this book. -Peter Krogholm, All Scandinavian.com

Monkee Platez next offering is the 'Fulltilt EP' from Glasgow outfit Mr Hajika.
4 slabs of groove driven tech house...
Fulltilt original is a chugging, bass heavy track with a subtle musicality that develops throughout. Dr. Bergers remix is a stripped down deeper edit, with an infectious flow that maintains the essence of the original. Similarly to Dr. Berger, Alex Fiction strips back the layers to uncover an electronic soul which builds into an intelligently emotive interpretation, if slightly twisted. Completing the package is 'Nitemoves' which shares the big sound of Fulltilt, but with a more progressive, melodic vibe."
