I just found this lot. Havana 3am. Had a minor hit with the song below which is a great mix of surf, rockabilly and that sort of Clash reggae sound.
Also, that's Paul Simenon on bass.
And... XC-NN. This band had a little bit of notoriety in the early 90s. That's Tim Bricheno on guitar, he was in All About Eve. This is a GREAT song though and the singer absolute kills on it. What a great performance. They should have been bigger.

Stefan Moore, Stefan Moore running down the wing. Stefan Moore, Stefan Moore running down the wing. He runs like a cheetah, his crosses couldn't be sweeter. Stefan Moore. Stefan Moore. Stefan Moore.

Although not a lesser-known group, I have to say, I've investigated these lot the last few weeks and feel despite their instant success, they have some great tunes. Their Congratulations album is a brilliant album, but I really dig this tune. Has a great 80s vibe with a psychedelic edge. I think they're a great modern group who really push boundaries and have a good melodic grasp compared to other bands of their ilk like Tame Impala. MGMT are one of the best of the 2010'/20's era

This thread has just sent me down a rabbit hole but I’ve emerged unscathed with a band called ‘McCarthy’.
They were formed in deepest darkest Barking in the 80’s under the influence of The Sex Pistols, The Clash and The Buzzcocks. Their debut album ‘I am a Wallet’ was rated by James Dean Bradfield as his top British album of all time. So there!

Also that’s Tim Gane on guitar.
80s indie is a rabbit hole you can lose yourself in. I think personally some of the best music both this side and the other side of the atlantic came out of the 1980s. I think it equals the 60s in some respect.

Bit of a cheat because they're legendary in their own right, but as early uk hip hop pioneers Taskforce deserve so much more recognition from people who are in to hip hop today.
