80s British Noisepop (house, musical genre, albums, Nirvana, quote)

I`m bored of grunge getting so much attention and this getting ignored when it`s basically the same thing ...... only much better.

So go check out some of these bands...

Swervedriver
Fudge Tunnel
Mega City Four
Senseless Things
Pop Will Eat Itself
Bomb Disneyland/Everything
My Bloody Valentine
Spacemen 3
Jesus & Mary Chain
Ride
Slowdive

And then perhaps we can stop all this ridiculous talk about Nirvana inventing grunge ...ok?

i dont think nirvana sounds like any of those bands which i have heard. nirvana were much more easily accessible.

only shallow is one of the best 5 songs ever written

Urban Hat€monger ? · 02-13-2006, 06:04 PM

Well Nirvana sound nothing like Mudhoney or Soundgarden but it`s still classed as grunge

Dross · 02-13-2006, 06:12 PM

not really. those bands dont call themselves grunge.i dont think of nirvana as a grunge band. the whole term "grunge" as applied to a musical genre is bollocks

Doesn`t matter , most people seem to.

i think it has been demonstrated many times that most people are idiots.

candlebox (ugh, im disgusted i live in a world where their existence is possible) are too considered grunge.

A few bands that should be mentioned too..

Lush
Chapterhouse
Curve

I'd like keep this as far from grunge as possible please.. there are some similarities but there are more differences in my opinion...

Urban Hat€monger ? · 02-14-2006, 05:03 AM

Well those bands are more shoegazer than noisepop , there is a crossover element but I was going for the heavier sounding bands.

IndiElectronica · 02-14-2006, 07:59 AM

ride is certainly more shoe-gaze than noise-pop so you lost me on that one!!

no matter - certainly not worth an arguement - haha!
