Earlier today we floated the hashtag #IndieBandFootyClubs to get your ideas on some real life football clubs around the world who could easily drop the hottest new album of 2015 if they were actually indie bands instead.
Tweet us your best Football Clubs that sound like Indie Bands. We've got Paderborn and Energie Cottbus from Germany #IndieBandFootyClubs

The responses were quite satisfying.
Paderborn
Energie Cottbus
Hellas Verona
Luca Toni bangs them in for a Serie A side who could also be a death-metal group.
Kaizer Chiefs
@ballsdotie Kaiser Chiefs, South Africa too obvious?

Orlando Pirates
Another South African side here, would make for a very cool band name.

Kalamazoo Outrage
Yep, that's really a team name. From the prestigious USL in America.

Hearts of Oak
Back to Ghana hear, some slow country ballads could easily come from this Accra club.

Arcadia Shepherds
Another South African side, Hot Press could easily do a feature on them.

Finn Harps
You wouldn't bat an eyelid if you were told these guys were a Boston based rock group.
