Manchester Bands?

[Pix]

I write for my student newspaper about local bands and so on. I've always been interested in local music and supporting real talent. I find you can get much more emotionally invested in a band that you watch grow from a gig in the basement of HMV to a world recognised name.

Unfortunately I'm up in Aberdeen like 90% of my time now due to uni and I'm really missing the indie Manchester scene. Anyone clued up? Got a local favourite you want to show off?

I'd love to hear some!
