: Best Brit Pop : Anonymous June 23, 2003, 08:38:46 AM another topic being hotly debated on our old msg board when we made the switch.
"Brit Pop was a term made up by British Music Press around '94 following the movement from Manchester to Happy Valley (Shoegazaer). Brit Pop is considered to be the dead term as Demon Albarn said "Brit Pop is dead.". Here, true Brit Pop is probably Blur only. The next one is perhaps Manchester (Madchester) Sound related to Factory and Guitar Pop?" - Excerpt from http://www.bb.wakwak.com/~buggle/brit.html. an "altrnative britpop website My nominees: Smiths - Queen is Dead Smiths - Hatful of Hollow Smiths - Louder than Bombs Smiths - Strangeways Here we Come My Bloody Valentine - Loveless * Dandy Warhols - Dandy Warhols Come Down New Order - Substance New Order - Technique The Verve - Urban Hymns The Verve - Northern Soul Stone Roses - Stone Roses Happy Mondays - Pills, Thrills, Bellyaches U2 - The Joshua Tree U2 - Collected Singles Pulp - A Different Class Blur - Parklife Blur - The Best of Blur Ride - Nowhere Slowdive - Slowdive * Elastica - Elastica Suede - JOE FILL IN WITH BEST TWO ALBUMS Depeche Mode - Violator Duran Duran - Rio Duran Duran - Seven and the Ragged Tiger The Cure - Boys Don't Cry The Cure - Standing on a Beach The Cure - Disintegration Catherine Wheel - Chrome Catherine Wheel - Newest one Space - SEAN REMIND ME ALBUM NAME HERE Royal Albert Hall October 10 1997 [LIVE] by Spiritualized Aluminum Tunes: Switched On, Vol. 3 by Stereolab (What's The Story) Morning Glory? by Oasis OK Computer by Radiohead Darklands by The Jesus and Mary Chain Lovelife by Lush Screamadelica by Primal Scream Swervedriver by Swervedriver The Perfect Prescription by Spacemen 3 Songs to Learn & Sing by Echo & the Bunnymen Lovegod by The Soup Dragons Ladies & Gentlemen We Are Floating in Space by Spiritualized Bandwagonesque by Teenage Fanclub BBC Sessions [LIVE] by Cocteau Twins I Should Coco by Supergrass Us And Us Only by The Charlatans U.K. Suede (debut) Suede-Sci-Fi Lullabys Morrissey-Bona Drag Morrissey-Viva Hate Morrissey-Vauxhall and I Moz-Your Arsenal James-Laid Richard Ashcroft-Alone With Everbody Pulp-His 'N Hers Pulp-This is Hardcore Badly Drawn Boy-About A Boy The Smiths - Hatful of Hollow The Smiths - The Queen is Dead The Smiths - The World Won't Listen The Stone Roses - The Stone Roses Blue - Parklife Oasis - What's the Story (Morning Glory)?

Jesus and Mary Chain - Psychocandy : Best Brit Pop : Anonymous June 29, 2003, 01:48:13 AM "bb.wakwak.com"... That's funny.
What's also funny is how many different sounding bands you've listed (I'll reluctantly give you props for listing New Order's Technique album twice. That joint's one of my all-time guilty pleasures.) You may as well add American bands (Material Issue is a no-brainer) along with the Beatles, Zeppelin and fuckin' Slick Rick (the only British rapper who doesn't suck chode. In fact, the only British rapper.) If Duran Duran, U2 and the Cure are "Britpop" you may as well just call Happy Mondays "stoner rock" and be done with it. "bb.wakwak.com"... That's a great name for a British Hip-Hop site. |
