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.

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.

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".
I just got these in the mail today: Wind in the Wires-Patrick Wolf Labor Days-Aesop Rock In Rainbows-Radiohead Their all incredible albums. |
