I very much don't like britpop. I do have a couple Suede albums. Not sure how much I like them though.

I'll tell you what - a lot of Britpop bands got better when they moved away from that sound. I'll take Pulp's This Is Hardcore and We Love Life over His n Hers and Different Class anyday. Supergrass' self-titled and Road To Rouen are much better albums than I Should Coco. I much prefer Suede's Head Music to Dog Man Star.

Which reminds me...

Stones Roses - can't stand them.

I'll agree with Inflammable Material.

Really not a Germ Free Adolescents fan though. I do think Identity's a pretty awesome to this day, though

I don't like Damon Albarn as a vocalist, so Blur is pretty skip-worthy for me.

Like a top 10 balls to the wall punk track right here.

Would you wear a GWAR pin with the line "we have no need for your crippled christ"?

(if you don't know who GWAR is, save yourself a bad experience and leave it alone)

Same. One of the most overrated bands going. They are almost a meme at this point. Reunions and lemon emojis 🍋

Yeah, the Mondays are miles better. Pills n Thrills is an absolute classic.

Uncle Dysfunktional was actually pretty great as well, when they just randomly came out with that like 15 years after Yes Please. Dunno if that counts as an unpopular opinion either.

Song 2's pretty great, even if it's just so overfamiliar I probably whistle it in my sleep.

Parklife's a good album, and Boys and Girls is a great tune - the lead guitar on that is fucking great. I've gone off the album as a whole over the years though - a good deal of it hasn't really aged that well. And Far Out is probably the worst song they ever did
