Britpop

From HitStory, the pop encyclopedia of School of Rock · Genre

Britpop · Around 1993 British bands deliberately chose a different direction from American grunge: back to the Beatles, The Kinks, The Who and the mods. In August 1995 Blur from London and Oasis from Manchester released a single on the same day. Blur won the battle for first place, Oasis the one for album sales.
