Show Notes
The time has come to talk about three albums that we think are good Britpop albums. If you could even call some of them Britpop albums…
Chris chose ‘I Should Coco’ by Supergrass, which is definitely a Britpop album.
Mark chose ‘Everything Must Go’ by Manic Street Preachers, which is not a Britpop album, but is often considered one, and is even categorised as one in wikipedia.
Weaver chose ‘Blur’ by Blur, which is not a Britpop album, but is an album by a leading Britpop act. It’s really where the band shed its skin and went into more lo-fi, indie rock territory.
All of these choices prompt some healthy discussion, which we won’t spoil for you hear. Needless to say though, it’s actually quite good natured all round!
Which is the best, most Unsung Britpop album? Only you can tell us.
