They were pretending to be indie, with britpop? No offense, but that just sounds kind of like a hipster comment.

A good amount of indie is quality material and isn't overproduced. It was the grunge of britain.

Grunge too was about going back to a simpler style without fancy production or the killing of artistic style. Except they were emulating the American garage rock in theory, whereas britpop emulates the style of british invasion artists. The music is very different, though.
