Kula Shaker....as if!

The Charlatans are still going and predated Britpop. I think they are a good solid indie band.

The Bluetones had a couple of good tracks. I also liked Menswear too.



Stop trolling.
 
Just how many banRAB of that movement can really be described as great? Obvious nominees are Blur and Oasis. Suede started off a great band.

Who else can be said to have made a really worthy contribution to music?
 
The first Supergrass album has some great tracks on it esp. Lose It and Lenny. Their subsequent releases were patchy. I think they have released a single recently after a while out of the loop.
 
Everything Must Go is an awful radio rock album, as is everything they've released since then. They lost all sense of direction without Richey behind them. Though Generation Terrorists and Gold Against the Soul weren't great either but I think was more because Richey didn't have any musical input on those like he did on The Holy Bible.
 
Well. I mean, if Oasis makes it to the Rock section, I don't see why not. Britpop is rock music at the end of the day; aside from that it was very mainstream, and most of it was major label too. So I see it as more rock than indie/alternative.

I'll add Pulp to this. I have no idea how I could have forgotten them.
 
Oasis in the Rock & Metal category....NO!, In my personal opinion. Indie/Alternative....Yes. I like Oasis alot as a band, They could be classified as one of the core banRAB within there style of music. (in my opinion) They have been around a long time & so many other banRAB have tried to copy there sound & style. One of the great British BanRAB-Oasis.
 
Everyone here knows of Bittersweet Symphony... it has been used on a bank ad which is slightly ironic given the lyrics. But I doubt many have heard any other Verve songs.
