We had The Jam, then came The Smiths, Then Came The Stone Roses, then Came Oasis

[InOne]

Soooooooooooooooooooooooo has anyone carried on that great Brit music?

[Stu]

Depressingly enough the general consensus would say Cockplay.

I think Gorillaz and Kasabian perhaps are the two that spring to mind.

[Niamh.]

I think Cold play are brilliant

[Tom]

For mainstream appeal, which the rest of the bands had, I'd say the next one would have been the Arctic Monkeys (even though they're nowhere near as good) until they went and cocked it up for themselves when Alex went to do Last of the Shadow Puppets at the height of their success.

I can't really see anyone else about atm (British at least) that have that kind of appeal.

[hennessy]

I would say
radiohead which begets
Coldplay which (kinda, hey I'm on a tangent here) begets
Muse ...

[rapunza1977]

i think White Lies are tremendous!!

Stereophonics COULD have had it but lost it a few albums ago!

[rapunza1977]

Definately Muse and Radiohead!

[rapunza1977]

...and hey! Where is Blur in this? Charlatans!

[Stu]

Yeah Stereophonics should really have been doing consistent stadium tours by this point but they lost it.

[InOne]

Blur are for middle class indie kids

Blur are for middle class indie kids

I like Blur and Oasis, what does that make me?.................confused?

[rapunza1977]

Absolute nonsense
they were a good band in their day, I was always more Oasis but enjoyed some Blur

Definately! Seen then 2 weeks ago - cannot belive it! Your dead on - should be doing Stadium touers like Oasis etc but bland and safe with their albums

[Stu]

Come on. These stereotypes are useless. Are Oasis for overly agressive, hungover, mad for it men?

[Shaun]

:lovedup:

I'd agree with Tom (for a change :|) - the Arctics are probably (or were...if Humbug is anything go by) the current 'big British thing'.

I actually thinkg they are losing their way now!

Alexa Chung doing her 'thang' in the States and dragging Alex away!!

It's mesmerising to watch Matt Helders in action - he is an amazing drummer i think

It makes you a feisty Irish female

Don't mind Beetlebum. Song 2 drives me nuts though, heard it too many times.

Possible lol I wish I was like 30 or something so I could have been a teen in the 90's.

[King Gizzard]

I'd say Muse is one of the Best British import in years.

[InOne]

All the bands that look promising seem to just die down and become part of the indie scene kinda thing
