Depends how you define Britpop.

At the start around 1992 or so the term was coined do describe people like PJ Harvey , The Auteurs & Suede as a new British movement of bands.

It didn`t actually become a 'sound' until a couple of years later when you had the likes of Elastica , Sleeper , Menswear , Shed 7 ect ect ect all trying to rip off Wire albums

my vote's on blur....n er...hi.

blur or oasis?
 

dude come on.. that was SO 90's man!

They're both great , but Blur were better IMO. Most of Oasis' music get boring really fast, as their songs pretty much all sound alike.

Blur's band members weren't *******s in the tabloids either, and that help a lot if you're gonna like them.

I have to go with Blur. Damon wrote better lyrics and theyre music was much more diverse where as Oasis's music all starts to blend after the first 2 albums.

blur

I grew up with both and they were both fantastic 60's throwbacks; however Oasis appeared in an exciting time for music, ignored that totally and appealed to the British public as the reactionary, comfort-loving, settle-for-average drunks that they predominantly are.

oh and in case there's any doubt as to who comes out on top:

for once I agree with a lot of people on here. Blur was amazing. I could never get really into Oasis as they sounded like the wannabe Beatles, whereas Blur was something unique and amazing the whole time.

Oh god I love Oasis to death so this is pretty biased.

blur.
damon is a ****ing genius.
gorillaz, good bad queen, blur.
its all amazing.
