I can also start with Satyricon and in that direction as well haha. Was a big fan in highscool.

There is a little know rapper from Finland: Cheek.  Also worth checking out, Fintelligents.  Another good hip-hop band from Suomi :-)

10 years ago, rock'n roll used to be interesting..

Hey Translator,

I just can't help it but I have to point out one common misconception in your post: Björk, as any other Icelander, is not Scandinavian.

If you would be interested in not only Scandinavian, but also other Nordic music, then there is a bunch of fantastic stuff to discover in the Icelandic music scene, a few electronica goodies: 

FM Belfast:

Here is one they do with Kasper Bjørke:

You might know Apparat Organ Quartet:

and perhaps also Gus Gus:

An old classic (no longer active unfortunately), Trabant:

And there’s a lot of brilliant stuff in the Rock, Indie and Pop scenes, to name a few of the very best: Kimono, Seabear, Sing Fang Bous, Dikta, Retro Stefson, Kira Kira, Mugison, Reykjavík!, Jan Mayen, Sudden Weather Change, Isidor, Lada Sport, Dr. Spock, HAM, Lay Low, Benny Crespo’s Gang, Emiliana Torrini, Jagúar, Megas, Retrön, Skátar (I might be a bit biased on that one) and many many more. Check it out and enjoy!   

Ah,  thanks for that correction! By all means, let's make it a Nordic music thread..

Good stuff!  :-)

Cool, especially the first song....

I saw Jens Lekman a few years ago at the Usine. ..

Radio Dept are fantastic:

TTA - The tough alliance & Embassy
