Never said you said it , I was just explaining why they don't sound anything alike. No need to get defensive.

And yes there is a difference. Britpop was a collection of bands from the same area who were all being signed and putting stuff out after a time where there wasn't much in the way of British music. It had nothing to do with how they sounded.

The first group of bands to be labelled Britpop wern't Blur or Oasis but Denim (A 70s glam rock parody) PJ Harvey & The Auteurs. all very very different artists with just the country they were from being the connection.

I guess....but a movement can define a genre such as punk in the 70's

There are always exceptions. You were talking about Britpop and in that case there was a difference.
Or at least there was until later when every band started sounding the same.

Yeh well I think it's like that in most cases like grunge, new wave.....ect. But what are some other good 'Britpop' bands?

I'm sure Urban will back me up, a good band at that time were Super Furry Animals.

After listening to it obsessively for the last couple of days, I have concluded that it's my favorite King Crimson album ever. What's your favorite song off Red? Mine is probably "Fallen Angel".

Their all incredible albums.

the black seeds - into the dojo

just got it in the mail a few days ago. i was so relieved, i was sure those sketchy kiwi's had scammed me

Weedeater - "...And Justice for Y'all"
Weedeater - "Sixteen Tons"
Weedeater - "God Luck and Good Speed"

Starless is mine - it's also my favourite song ever. But yeah, Fallen Angel would be my next favourite. I think all the songs all stellar though - they managed to get the improvisational thing right with Providence as well, which is much better than Moonchild from ITCOTCK.


I haven't yet heard that album.

God Don't Make No Junk- The Halo Benders
