Well for me it's not so much that, it's this
Even with the likes of Blur , Oasis , Pulp & Suede being accepted in the mainstream there was still like a second tier of good bands just under them.
I'm not talking about bands like Echobelly , Sleeper or the Stereophonics who all had big hits during that time I mean bands like The Auteurs , Super Furry Animals , Telstar Ponies , Gorky's Zygotic Mynci, Strangelove , Flying Saucer Attack , Ultrasound & Delicatessen and I guess to some extent back then Belle & Sebastian & Mogwai. Good indie bands who although had nothing to do with the whole britpop thing benefited from the increased exposure. I think thats whats really missing now.
