More About Britpop

Britpop was a mid-1990s British alternative rock genre and movement. The movement emerged from the indie scene of the early 1990s and was characterised by bands influenced by British guitar pop music of the 1960s and 1970s.

The movement developed as a reaction against various musical and cultural trends in the late 1980s and early 1990s, particularly the grunge phenomenon from the United States. In the wake of the musical invasion into the United Kingdom by popular American bands such as Nirvana, many bands positioned themselves as opposing musical forces, referencing British guitar music of the past and writing about uniquely British topics and concerns.

Although Britpop bands did not have a single unifying sound, the media grouped them together first as a 'scene' and later as a national cultural movement. Oasis, Blur and Pulp are often considered the scene's most prominent acts, but other major bands associated with Britpop at various stages included Suede, Elastica, The Boo Radleys, Kula Shaker, The Charlatans, Supergrass, and The Verve.
