This is sooooo true.
>>123843851Swap Blur and Pulp
>>123843856This is probably the case
>>123843856This. Pulp made 4 classics in a row, AND had the decency to call it quits.
HER NAME WAS DEBORAHIT NEVER SUITED YE
>>123843941Blur had an amazing 7 run album.
All truth till the last panel I rate Bollocks try harder / 10 See ya at Wembley next year twat As You Were LG x
>>123844029MLIR, Parklife, s/t, 13, yeah those are good. I can leave the rest.
>>123843851Nobody knows who Pulp is
this whole genre was literally funded by the British government as a distraction for young unemployed males lolit's a government subsidized genre, THAT'S why it was "popular", and also why no one listens to it now
>>123843851Three shit boring bands
>>123843851kek>>123844867tell me more
>>123843851I like bush more than oasis
>>123844867It was the answer to grunge made for depressed faggots, so it’s the one time the government product worked.
>>123844917this
None of these bands were popular in USA. Bush was popular in USA
>>123843851Musically Sueded shat all over these three.But they don't have as much mass appeal due to Anderson's androgynous vocal style and stage presence.But if you check out the guitar parts, Butler's compositions are the best you can find in the 90s.By comparison Oasis sounds like stadium chants for lads who had too much lager.And Blur and Pulp were always some weird plastic bands with gimmicky music. There was too much irony and hipster sarcastic distance from their subjects.
>>123845426>with gimmicky musicoh yeah, Anderson's androgynous bisexual Bowie rip off wasn't gimmicky LMAO
>>123845426When it comes to britpop guitarists Coxon isn't far off. Just listen to things like Wear Me Down, He Thought of Cars, Essex Dogs and Caramel
>>123843851I refuse to believe anyone rates Pulp above Blur/Oasis out of anything other than pure contrarianism
>>123845416>if something is not popular in USA then it's bad
Suede >
Oasis have never made a song as good as Trimm trabb
>he doesn't rate Manics, Verve, Supergrass and Mansun
>>123844867juicy angle for conspiracies but the truth is less exciting.both labour and tories tried to form connections with the already burgeoning music scene to appeal to the young vote.was successful for labour but they already had momentum plus every british musician who grew up in the 70s/80s had been taught to hate tories.Its impossible to explain to anyone who wasnt there but the uk in the mid 90s was a seriously exciting place to be with genuine optimism that the future could only get better cos the 90s seemed so much better than the drab 80s, sometimes the music just catches the zeitgeist.Sad irony of it all is that the previous 23 years of tory rule produced arguably the greatest run of brit music from punk/rave/indie/jungle/grindcore etc etc, while all that came out of new labour was grime and landfill indie kek
Wonderwall is the only culturally important song written between these 3 bands though.
>>123846698>implying Common People isn't the most culturally significant UK song of the 90s
Britpop is the WOAT genre, so that pic means absolutely nothing
>>123846698t. ameritard>>123843851pulp and blur are the absolute epitome of midwit pretentiousness that faded into cultural insignificance 20 seconds after they left the charts while oasis sold out wembley in 2 minutes 15 years after they broke up. I can see why a board full of pretentious midwits would rank them as such though. although even on that score, pulp should be 1st.
>>123846507Supergrass shit all over every Britpop band, the most consistent pop songwriters of the 90s. Debut album doesn't have a bad song on it and they were only 17 when they wrote it.
>>123846718It'sbetter than every UK genre after the 90s
>blurwankers and suedesisters seething itt
>>123846745>>123846891Oasis have 2-3 good albums tops
>>123847173biblical albumsdm alone mogs blur
>>123844867Why would a government deliberately promote youth unemployment? What would their incentive be to prolong the amount of time they're paying out unemployment benefits?
>>1238471732 more than Blur and Pulp
The La’s brutally mogged all these MI5 endorsed Britpop bands
>>123845629I don't think it was a role he played. I think the guy was genuinely on the verge of trooning out. But back in the 90s this was too freakish to actually go through.So he resisted the urge and eventually grew out of it and manned up a bit.Now he just looks like an aged introvert.But I don't think he was going for the Bowie impersonation, he said he was trying to sing like Siouxsie. Bowie always had more of a crooner voice, despite his hybrid image.
>>123846746Supergrass are a really underrated band.I think they had better songs than both Pulp and Blur. Not as anthemic as Oasis, but they had a unique sound.
>>123843851The average person can't blame a single Blur song.Everyone knows Oasis did Wonderwall. Some even "Don't Look Back in Anger"
>>123849617WOOHOO counts
>>123849509They were mainly power pop band inspired by Buzzcocks but their sound got more mature
>>123849101Actual one hit wonder
>>123846523>but the uk in the mid 90s was a seriously exciting place to be with genuine optimism that the future could only get betterbecause of the economic success of Thatcher's policies
>>123843941>AND had the decency to call it quits.They're still an active band
>>123849662They might know the song but they don't know who made it
>>123844161People do know who Hasan is. Go watch him instead of browsing mu since thats your metric. Faggot.
>>123843851None of these bands are worth remembering.
