Why are they always droney

not one song on here was that good

I’m not sure how some of these albums make it on to this list. Not for me 1/5

Blehhhhhhh

Thankfully this passed me by in 1993. Dull as dishwasher!

Had never heard of this band before - after listening I know why.

An ok album, most tracks sounded alike

Fuck britpop. I could save a lot of listening time by auto rating all good britpop to 1 or 2 stars. 1.41

Een album genereren dat geen britpop is (onmogelijk)

Melancholy, minor keys, repetitive guitars. Some early U2 sounds in some songs. Not my thing.

“I want Oasis” “We have Oasis at home” Oasis at home…

Wow, this was even worse than I had imagined it to be. Boring music, terrible vocals, songwriting that ain't half as clever as it thinks it is - 1993 in the mud!

Ruined my Wednesday morning

A distinct lack of emotion, I’m already tired of this genre of Brit Rock

I don't know if this album influenced many britpop artists of the 90's, or whether they just sound like all of them, but I heard Ash, Long Pigs, Blur, Oasis, Elastica, etc, etc, etc, all throughout this album. If they influenced all those artists with this offering then they eserve some kudos but I suspect this is just another britpop - inidie offering. I found it uninpiring, middle of the road and, that worst slight of all, tepid. 2 stars bordering on 1. No. I'll give it a 1 as I'm never going to listen to this again.

Wow I really hated this album. DNF

meh. 1 star. won't be back.

i couldn't tell you why this album is here. sure, my ears didn't bleed, but new wave was not full of the new wave genre but instead that boring, unremarkable indie music of the aughts. i suppose the auteurs were ahead of their time, with this album's release in 1993. anyway, new wave's inclusion made sense once i read it was part of early britpop--and then i understood why i found it so boring!

Seguimos con los LP coñazos. Me parece que me voy a dar de baja.

Poor show.

i was going to write "au revoir!", but actually "piss off" is more appropriate since I'd prefer never to encounter this again

Listened to it twice and that one star is a reminder not to listened to it again.

Only 1 song I really liked on here

1/5. Mostly boring. It’s airy and sweet but not worth listening to. It’s at best fine but I’d rather be listening to most anything else.

For fuck sakes, why are there so many shitty britpop/shoegaze artists on this fucking list. There is so much music more deserving of a spot on this list. This garbage was made by un-enthusiastic goth idiots. Sounds like they had no interest in being there. Shitty simplistic musical accompaniment, and nasally moany singing. I could have gone my life without listening to this stupid angst filled bullshit. Whoever put this list together needs their head examined. Fuck this album. There's 40 minutes of my life I'll never get back. No redeeming qualities. Utter trash. Favourite songs: Subculture (They Can't Find Him) (hidden track at the end of the album), Idiot Brother, Junk Shop Clothes Least favourite songs: Bailed Out, American Guitars, Starstruck... and others.. It was so bland I drifted off a few times 1/5

Surely the lead singer is holding his nose while he sings. This is a truly annoying piece of crap.

The soft vocal sound does not work for me here, with really dull songwriting. Most of the song intros just make me want to turn them off, with repetitive chords and strumming and beats.

Mais um disco de indie. Que regalo sensacional! Assim sendo, mais uma experiência completamente previsível e entediante...

Whinge-pop.

not good

I do not like this.

Great, an Indie album from the 90s. Its only benefit is that is less than 45 minutes long. It has the whiny annoying singer, bad lyrics, and the music itself is meh. It is not the worst album on the list but it is not a 2. I will round down.

Shit sandwich

Not good

This feels like pretty generic UK indie pop. I don't really know how it made this list. I hated the poncey vocals and got more annoyed with each subsequent song.

Didn’t like it

Showgirl was a nice song I'd heard on a compilation many moons ago. The rest complete arse.

Sorry what though now? Where’s the good music on this list?

Lots of boring singer-songwriter cliches that aren't bad per se, but aren't very engaging. Also Luke Haines' voice is a bit annoying to me. Favorite Tracks: "Show Girl"

Not a fan.

Este britpop pedorro!!!

Ushered in a new era of bland, limp-wristed, badly sung indie. Too many songs about stars. Did not like one bit.

Boring. Does not touch me.

I didn't hate it, I didn't love it, I just found it boring

9 of the songs sounded like the same thong with different words. Was not until the last two songs that it showed signs of life. Could exist without listening to it ever again

Dull then. Dull now.

I could have gone my whole life and not heard this album. It was straight garbage.

This was some trish trash, like wtf is this doing on the list haha

Stumpfbeat umrahmtes Langweiler Songwriting. Cover würde ich gerne als LP haben - von mir aus leer. Egale 0.7

Som det står i bio'n: "..British press linked them with the massively popular Suede...". Tenker det sier sitt - terningkast 1.
