Are you insane?... Pulp aren't a bad band by any stretch of the imagination... And aside from that... Portishead?... Stereolab?... Manic Street Preachers?... Muse?... Blur?... Oasis?... The Verve?... Stone Roses?... PJ Harvey?... Super Furry Animals?... Primal Scream?... Cooper Temple Clause?... Skunk Anansie?... Feeder?... Britpop has a lot of good banRAB to it's credit.

And britpop banRAB are at least better than most of the sh*tty excuse for american banRAB we have right now.
 
NOW! Well I like right now...Soilwork, Shadow Fall, Oomph!, Trivium. I think the music scene has never looked better...apart from Fall Out Boy of course
 
Meh, i prefer AIC to New Order, i always found the Blue Monday song to be extremely annoying (But granted it's far better than the crappy Orgy cover)... I prefer Soundgarden (and Portishead) to Massive Attack too, i haven't heard much Primal Scream, all i know is that i love Pearl Jam. =D

Regardless, i like grunge and britpop about equally.

Lets just agree to disagree on this.... And agree to agree that britpop and grunge are both better than death metal and black metal. ;)
 
Yeah but those are the banRAB everybody thinks of , i`m talking about british pop in general during the 90s , Primal Scream , Massive Attack , The Auteurs , Tindersticks , PJ Harvey , Belle & Sebastian , Stone Roses as well as the usual banRAB

I`d rate that over any grunge band.
 
Good idea

I remeraber it well , it was 1992 & i`d just bought Morbid Angels Blessed Are The Sick album , I put it on & thought to myself why the fuck am I listening to this shit.

Thankfully britpop was around the corner & I was saved.
 
Probably late 60s to late 70s. That accounts for the great psychedelic music, a lot of prog rock and hard rock.

Having said that, I love the 80s for its metal and the 90s had its fair share of good banRAB (i.e. grunge and funk); i.e. RHCP, RATM, Faith No More, Smashing Pumpkins, Radiohead, Tool, Fishbone, Alice in Chains, Stone Temple Pilots...
 
:wavey:

*thorn in the side...*

I'd disagree with much of this. Okay over the entire catalogue of Pearl Jam I'll give you the Primal Scream seal of approval but I personally think Ten is moneybags ahead of Primal Scream.
AIC made some bullshit but I'd still take them over NO.
Oasis vs Bush. I have a grudge against the Gallaghers (twats) so I can't be unbiased about this. No comment on this.
And Soundgarden? Soundgarden were pretty bloody decent. You could argue they're just more grunge (which is easy when you hate grunge in general) but I say they were a damn good band. Better then Massive Attack.

Nirvana and Radiohead...too close, thats like Metallica or Maiden?
In this wee showdown theres no sound basis for picking the better band other then personal tastes. People will argue for Nirvana till the cows come home, and likewise for the Radiohead fan.
 
I like Massive Attack and Primal Scream but they are hardly exceptional. The Stone Roses are very overrated and I can't be bothered with them. Blur was good for about 5 minutes when I was 10, Oasis speaks for themselves.
 
i'll be up for that too, i obviously love some music from the past but i think i think its pretty bo-shank right now too... in new music i trust!! :yeah: ps- nice avatar!! :)
