The Ultimate Britpop Compilation is Here!
It doesn’t include Oasis or Blur, but other bands often forgotten about. Bands that had just as much impact as the greatness of the kings of Britpop. Common People: The Britpop Story will be released on June 8. Pulp, The Stone Roses and Superfurry Animals are just a few of the pioneer bands on the disc set. Bob Stanley, who wrote for the Melody Maker during the Britpop era, wrote the liner for the compilation.
