There is also many bands with fake accents, like 1980s Minor Threat with whatever UK accent Ian Mackaye was channeling

And all the British bands who have strangely Midwestern accents.

I'm always surprised to learn a band is English when I expected they'd be from Chicago or Detroit

I remember how in the 1990s I listened to Green Day (US with British accent) and Bush (British with US accent).
