Yeah, Animals That Swim are a wonderful band. Definitely agree with you on a slight Butchie feel, with horns that REALLY complement the sound without dominating. Their first album, _Workshy_, is available domestically in the US and is equally enchanting.

Along the same lines, Jack is a band that reminds me a bit of Butchie and the Blue Aeroplanes at times. Their debut, _Pioneer Soundtracks_, is also domestic in the States.
