Kula Shaker....as if!

The Charlatans are still going and predated Britpop. I think they are a good solid indie band.

The Bluetones had a couple of good tracks. I also liked Menswear too.

Supergrass were good.
I liked them.
Don't get enough recognition imo.
Put some good albums out.

The first Supergrass album has some great tracks on it esp. Lose It and Lenny. Their subsequent releases were patchy. I think they have released a single recently after a while out of the loop.

Most britpop I could take or leave.

That said, I like some Blur once in a while, and I love Pulp. Pulp are easily my favourite.

Do you class the Stone Roses as "britpop"? If you do, then I love them as well.

No Stone Roses were a little earlier and their debut was more mellow than what is usually associated with Britpop. I suppose Britpop could easily read Guitar-pop.

It came to mean that once people started jumping on the bandwagon and with the whole Blur vs Oasis thing but when it started it was a collection of British bands that people thought would do well.
The original Select magazine article that the term Britpop was coined featured PJ Harvey (female singer-songwriter) The Auteurs (A sort of baroque pop band) Denim (Lawrence from Felt's 70s glam rock pastiche) and Suede who at that time were doing the whole Bowie/Roxy Music thing.

The original Britpop movement from say around 92-94 had some really original bands in it doing lots of different things , after that it became a more uniformed commercial sound.

The Stone Roses are often credited with starting the genre and almost always seen as a root source of the scene.
