Suede were brilliant (I think Head Music was their best album, but Dog Man Star and their self-titled debut are also essential). Pulp was also much better than Oasis.

I'd also check out Lush's later stuff. They moved from shoegaze to Britpop. Check out Lovelife.

I'd agree Suede > Oasis.

Big up for Pulp. A wonderfully idiosyncratic British band. Different Class was their breakthrough but His N Hers is so much better.

Aye, Pulp are my favourite group out of that period. Been thinking of doing a review of Different Class.

Do His N Hers instead. Different Class is so well known.

But I love Different Class. His N Hers feels like the warm-up to it. Still great though.

I like the eccentricity more on His N Hers but ANY reviews are welcome . f.e.e.l.i.n.g c.a.l.l.e.d l.o.v.e is the standout track on 'Different Class' for me.

This is Hardcore is great as well.

For me:
This is Hardcore
Different Class
We Love Life
His N Hers

Never heard anything before His N Hers, I hear it's not to great.
