Britpop Revival: SULK Interview

SULK Interview

So this basically a blog posting just linking to another blog posting!

SULK are one of my favourite new bands. I've always been a sucker for a jangly guitar and they have them in spades. Their debut album Graceless has just been released and is already a contender for my album of the year. Yes, there are comparisons to be made with the Stone Roses but there is plenty that is original here and I strongly recommend giving them a listen.

I had lead singer Jon on the Vapour Trails show recently and you can read my interview with him on the Strangeways Radio blog.

Do you remember the first time?

In the 1990s following on from showgaze and the baggy Madchester scene, and in direct response to the American grunge invasion, a new generation of bands started producing uniquely British music.

It reflected the changing times, the slow demise of the Tory administration and the promise of a brighter future (or so it seemed). From the first green shoots of 1992 until it ran out of steam at the end of the decade, music that could be called pop or indie became known simply as 'Britpop'.

Blur, Oasis, Pulp & Suede. Elastica, Republica, Catatonia & Echobelly. Shed Seven, Dodgy, Mansun & Ocean Colour Scene. Just the start of a long list of great bands.

This blog and the radio show celebrates those bands, those songs and those times!

Do you still remember the first time?
