England's Temples are getting a lot of well-deserved hype these days and it's easy to see why. Spin any one of those 3 trippy videos and get with the program. These lads are making some odd mix of Moody Blues and Primal Scream that I really enjoy. There's a hint of House of Love here too, especially in "Colours to Life" and maybe the boys would cite Teardrop Explodes as an influence too?
