>Suede breathed new life into glam rock, developing a sound that owed as much to Bowie and Roxy Music as it did to The Fall or Joy Division
>Pulp were exceptional pop songwriters, lead by the most charismatic and intelligent UK frontman/lyricist since Morrissey
>Blur was one of the most adventurous and rapidly maturing pop groups of the 90s and 00s
>but somehow the one Britpop band to become worldwide superstars consisted of a bunch of knuckle-dragging thugs who were only interested in ROCKING OUT, MAN

Why?

Oasis had pop songwriting just as good as Pulp, Suede and Blur. They weren't as deep, of course, but also had an image that contrasted very nicely with the grunge that was famous on the USA; Also it's good to remind that Oasis arrived in the scene much later than those other groups.

Oasis were literally one hit nobodies get real

Blur were utter shit btw.

James weren't really related to Britpop on anything more than a peripheral level.
I always liked this tune.

James were pretty great. They straddled wonderfully between the Madchester, Britpop and Jangle Pop scenes without falling squarely in any.

There were a ton of good Britpop bands that got lost in the rush. As cynical as I am about a lot of it, it did give a lot of bands a chance the have their break where they otherwise probably wouldn't have

>charismatic and intelligent
>Morrisey
Pick one.

Mansun were more ambitious and talented than any of those, especially Blur

Britpop is unironically the shittiest genre of the past few decades

Listen to an excerpt from this "critically-acclaimed, 9.1/10" album from the most "rapidly maturing pop groups"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uR_TCZa4Dxk

Amazingly, you can skip to any time in that song and it will always sound like shit. Same is true for the rest of the album and their discography and genre. As terrible as they are, Oasis actually *is* the best Britpop band by a mile.
>>
good melody, good vocals, cool as fuck
>>
>>74790757
That's not even britpop you bellend.
>>
>>74790921
Blur are a britpop band. Therefore all their songs are britpop.
>>
Bebop replacing Samurai Jack?? Don't be fucking retarded. One, Bebop is literally banned from airing because it got almost 0 viewers. Two, Jack isn't even on Toonami so why would a Toonami show replace it???
>>
>>74790757
Britpop is barely a genre, and even then it's more diverse and well thought-out than other meme scenes to come out of the UK around that period, like madchester and shoegaze.

btw that song is the furthest Blur strayed from britpop, and it's kinda shit, influenced by the same shit that inspired Radiohead
>>
>>74790921
Hey there fuckface did I say that song was Britpop? It's just proof of shittiness by the most-adored Britpop band, fockin knob'ead. Unfortunately, "Caramel" is Blur's best song

Billy Childish said it best:

"The British in general are quite soulless, so they have a hard time making even half-decent art"

That song is an objective 10 like both songs after in and the opener
