I guess ladytron is a pretty succesful new band from UK (if you like the 80's).

Displaying influences as diverse as Kraftwerk, Depeche Mode, Roxy Music, and the Velvet Underground, Ladytron rocks like the 90's never happened. The group has been branded "80's Revival," a term they loathe, though the facets of 80's music they evoke are, to my mind, the very best ones: sparse, stylish vamps, ear-pleasing synths, and almost invasively catchy tunes. I called up songwriter Daniel Hunt in an American Holiday Inn and interviewed him about the darkness of pop, the dangers of kitsch, and the pleasures of "Logan's Run," the series.
