Britpop isn't really my thing, but it was enjoyable.
I liked it. But I'm not sure what attracts Stip to this more than any other Brit Pop.
I can't say for sure I'd have given that song a shot if I wasn't already a huge fan. their best stuff is from the 90s. Laid and Millionaires are unbelievable records

wow. I have no idea how I would have reacted.
I wanted it so bad!

But ultimately I played to win. And I got my ass kicked. So, lesson learned.
I was playing that decade to win. Otherwise I would have drafted



for my 10th.

I love Fleet Foxes. I've heard rumors of another album in 2015. Helplessness Blues was incredible but sadly in 2011.

The only brit pop I ever cared about. Tim booth is soooo good:

This was actually pretty solid! Good pick :thumbsup:

me neither. I'm not sure i want more than that song though. I could see them being a band that wore out their welcome.

maybe not though. parts of that song lost me, but other parts were pretty great.

this was a much better song than your original pick. chud did you a favor.
You might like the album if you like that song.
I'd say Chud did you a favor -- you got to heard two awesome GUKs songs.

You might like On a Wire. It was produced by Scott Litt, who manned the board from the Green through Adventures in Hi-Fi run for R.E.M. It was a big change in sound for the GUKs, and pretty much killed their career.

TGUK is the only emo band from my high school years that I can still listen to on occasion.
