It's Britpop Week!

So underrated.

A couple of bands in here I haven't heard before. Good call.

A couple from myself:

A little too abrasive to be classed as Britpop but a class band not talked about a huge amount.

Love 'em or hate 'em, they are always entertaining. Great live too.

Shamefully Nuisance was the first c.d I ever bought. It's still a guilty pleasure.

Love this!

From the great Dog Man Star. The first two albums are good, but I was never really into the Post-Butler Suede.

The UK version of this video. Oasis' first album still has a cool for me after all these years.

I own up...I kind of liked this one as well. Slightly better than most of what came in the "Dad Rock" of '96-'97 at least (Northern Uproar, anyone?).

A little late for the party, but still sounding good to me. Their first album still gets played every once in a while (Sadly, I have to go to You Tube to hear the other, but at least it's there).

Well you know me I'm going to mention more mainstream type bands but I really like these two.

I really love Bloc Party. I have all of their albums but I really want to go purchase their physical CDs

Arctic Monkeys

I absolutely love this song! Brit pop is pretty sexy.

Possibly their finest single. I think Elvis Costello liked this if memory serves right. That nagging Casio Synth brings me back to The Early 80's.

Here's something from Britpop's baby brother, The New Wave of the New Wave (NWFTNW, or something like that...).

...and something form a very overlooked album from '97. I was surprised when I heard Accident and Emergency, but it still gets plays in my player every now and then.

A taste of Creation before Oasis crashed the party. Adorable may not have been top level, but they had some good moments. a bit before the scene's height, but some of the best moments were there.

One of the leading lights of Pre-Oasis Creation (along with The Primals and TFC)...RIDE! The full live version of the epic classic.

The single version.

THE best Oasis song.
