One of the few Czech bands which managed to break through abroad. From guitar indie (early 90's) to electronic post-rock / ambient. I'm optimistic...

Tara Fuki - Lej Lej (video)
Czech couple playing violoncellos and singing songs with folk motives mainly in Polish. Authentic and fine.
Gaffa - B-film (video)
Sleater-Kinney moving to CZ, too? Hehe, just kidding. Three girls playing punk-rock...
Atlantic Cable - A Song About Elvis (video)
Tyson Cosby aka Atlantic Cable, another American (resp. Canadian) who has moved to Czech. From blues-rock up to freak-folk. Nice!
Sabot (video)
Hilary Binder (drums) and Christopher Rankin (bass), a couple of Americans living in Czech city Tábor since early 90's and playing good music all the time.
Zuzana Navarova - Andělská (video)
Tender song of a Czech singer which died untimely but remained here several beautiful songs like this one.
Iva Bittova & Cikori - Křídla (video)
Another Iva's song, just a pity that the sound is not that good.
Iva Bittova & Vladimir Vaclavek - Sirka v louži (video)
Song about an (ordinary?) match-stick adventures.
Selfbrush - Did Not Call (video)
Václav Havelka aka Selfbrush (singer of Please The Trees), possibly to say Czech "Smog", and his in my opinion best song. I set my horses free...
Some Other Place - Země Tobě (video)
I guess this band had played post-rock even before post-rock got its name...:o)
C - Expelant (video)
Hard to say why but there are not so many post-rock bands in Czech so far. C plays music which oscilates between noisy and post-rock sound. Definitely good music!
Mejla Hlavsa alt. Tony Duchacek - Muchomůrky bílé (video)
This song exists in many different variations. Two of them below. Song about non-traditional mushrooming (Amanita phalloides var. alba)

Mejla Hlavsa / Fiction - Básníci ticha (video)
Let's call him old underground classic. Poets of the silence...
Psi vojaci - Žiletky (video)
Variation of probably best know song of Filip Topol and his band Psí vojáci. Song about razor-blades... They would call it emo today..:o)
Priessnitz - Děláže (video)
My meaning is that Priessnitz is one of the best Czech bands. Live video, sound not perfect, but the song is beautiful though.
Miou Miou - A l'été de la Saint-Martin '68 (video)
Lyrics are French, but the band is Czech. Keep loving bands with beautiful singers...
Photolab - Sunday & Monday (video)
Young Czech indie pop band Photolab. Lovely singer, I would say...
