Okay, so we all know Blur, Oasis and Suede, but what about the great girl-fronted Brit pop bands? (No, not the spice girls)
In it's glory days in the 90's there were many greats! And if you haven't heard much, heres some good places start.
Moving on from their shoegaze sounds in their earlier work Lush were a great brit pop group. Listen to the "lovelife" album for more stuff.
Another great band in the brit pop days were Sleeper; wrongly they're most well known work being their first album "Smart" and their cover of Blondie's "Atomic". Their best work is in their "The It Girl" album, full of personality and catchy guitar pop !
Echobelly were a great band, check their "On" and "Everybody's got one" albums for more catchy songs. There's rumours about a new album in 2010 under a different band name "Calm Of Zero".
Other bands worth a look are:
Elastica
Republica
Garbage (though not exactly brit pop)
