Cornershop
Essentially a one-hit-wonder with an interesting backstory, England's Cornershop have to be the only multi-ethnic indie-pop band to score a hit single on both sides of the pond by paying tribute to the Bollywood film industry. 1998's "Brimful of Asha"--a jubilant mash-up (thanks to a splendid Fatboy Slim remix) of Indian sitar, dance-pop, hip-hop, and indie rock--is undoubtedly the band's biggest contribution to pop music. Cornershop, however, will also be remembered (particularly in the U.K.) for the hullabaloo they created when the group publicly challenged Morrissey over some rather suspect remarks the singer made during his mid-'90s flirtations with neo-Fascism.
