From Wikipedia:
The Spotnicks are an instrumental rock group from Sweden, who were formed in 1961. They were famous for wearing "space suit" costumes on stage, and for their innovative electronic guitar sound. They have since released 42 albums, selling more than 18 million records, and still tour.(via Cynical-C)
Now listen to any of the early songs from the Ventures (Telstar, Outer Limits, Pipeline, Walk, Don't Run, etc.) The suits may have been their own little gimmick, but anyone with half an ear can tell whose sound these guys copied.
