Here's some well-produced synth rock mixing britrock sound of Franz Ferdinand (listen to City and wonder if Netherlands-based The Medics are secretly the Scottish alt rockers from the '00s) with the arena sound of The Naked and Famous. The Medics were featured on the the popular soccer video game FIFA 2012 alongside alt rock stars like The Strokes and The Vaccines. Since this publicity bump, the band has gotten positive response in soccer-obsessed nations Brazil and England.
