Didnt Britpop pretty much kill guitar music for a couple of years, afterwards everything was dance music and clubbing... |
Well in the next two years we got such offerings as:
OK Computer
C'mon Kids
Radiator
Odelay
Urban Hymns
Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space
Deserter’s Songs
Songs From Northern Britain
Pinkerton
Blur
Perfect From Now On
ect
I think guitar music was doing just fine…

Songs From Northern Britain is by Teenage Fanclub of course, and Pinkerton is Weezer's second album, I believe... Don't know the last one.

| Perfect From Now On is by Built To Spill Id recommend it whole heartedly they sound a little like if the Flaming Lips concentrated solely on the guitars, and were a little more melancholy. |

I really like Dodgy, but how shit were Sleeper? Fucking Christ, mediocrity personified and what's worse is their diabolic version of Atomic will be imposed for eternity on anyone who ever watches Trainspotting.

Against bloody Menswear more like. And the Longpigs, Kula Shaker, Ocean Sodding Colour Scene and Dodgy (ffs!). And as for the deification of Paul Weller - he's the Eric Clapton of his day, only more dull!!!!
Absoloute complete load of toffee one and all.

lay into the longpigs + kulawanker all you like, leave the rest alone |

Sleeper supported the Boo's on one of their tours in Europe and as far as I can remember Martin wasn't too impressed. Can you imagine being on the road for weeks with that shower of shit?
Any memories of the tour relationship Martin? |

| er, yeah, You're Gorgeous is pretty awful, but that song to him/them is wht Wake Up is to The Boo Radleys. Seriously. Some of the other stuff is amazing. Very dark, but very good. Sort of like an Indie Nick Cave! But the others you mentioned were shocking. |
