Over the years I've been discovering rock bands which I really digged and found out that they are from Denmark.
It started with Mew, then I got into VETO, Turboweekend, Spleen United, Dúné, The Floor Is Made Of Lava, Reptile Youth, When Saints Go Machine, Carpark North and few others.
I love this scene and it has always amazed me that most of these bands I enjoyed so much are from Denmark.
I even made a separate Spotify playlist for this, although it doesn't limit only to Danish bands.
Most releases from 2000s up to mid 2010s are so good, it makes me even think it was some sort of golden age of this type of music, but lately it feels like it fell off. Last VETO album is from 2018 and it was not it. And most other bands stopped releasing anything at all, with very few exceptions.
So, I was hoping to find some Danes who are familiar with the subject and could give me some recommendations about artists which I missed, or, perhaps, new artists?
At this point, even Spotify's "song radio" feature doesn't give me many new results, so I'm a bit desperate :(
Also, funny enough, there was a similar thread (except for the part about falling off) from 9 years ago in this sub. I wonder if there was new good stuff release in past decade, since that thread.
P.S. - I'm also into Kashmir, Dizzy Mizz Lizzy and some other Danish bands, but, in my opinion, they lie in a bit different genre. They are more of a traditional alternative rock and Dizzy Mizz Lizzy even has some prog to it.
TL;DR: Can someone please recommend me new artists similar to VETO, Carpark North, Turboweekend, Mew, Dúné, Spleen United, The Floor Is Made Of Lava, Reptile Youth, When Saints go Machine, WhoMadeWho, Ginger Ninja, etc

kk0du6iWOW GOD..!! you took me down memory lane.
Born in ‘89 with 2 older siblings who definitely influenced me. But when I really started to listen to music it was because of those bands. Though it was Kashmir with Zitilites, that really hit my young little heart of music. Glad you managed to mention them in the end💜
As I remember back then, people argued that because of the insane AQUA and barbie girl era, people reeeally needed something… different! And everything had to be in english because of the possibility of hitting the international scene. Songs in danish was almost ridiculed. But that luckily changed with Peter Sommer, who is someone who really managed to create interesting danish lyrics.
Maybe Duné and Saybia is worth checking out.

kk0lqa5'89 here too :)
Kashmir is amazing, although I discovered them for myself in different context, separate from VETO and others. It was back in the days when I was into more general alt rock stuff and it was all over the place between stuff like Radiohead, Kasabian and Coldplay. And many other bands, too, of course, including Kashmir.
And I gotta admit, I had no idea AQUA was Danish project, TIL...
Duné and Saybia are amazing, I know! Thank you. Saybia is more towards Kashmir kind of stuff, while Dúné is more in VETO direction.
