Yes I blame rubbish like the spice girls for the end of 90s music like this- the premature end. Now all the good acts don't want to be called ' britpop' . Sorry but the best looking woman from 95 was justine from elastica, who has also stopped music altogether and isn't a addict, shes an architect and shes married too .
Get Loaded in the Dark hits the Coronet on Thursday 1st April 2010 and is set to be another sell-out episode!

Ran into Sleeper last night on Pandora. A bit annoyed that the song I liked there is nowhere to be seen on YouTube and the like, but they seem like such a good band that I may actually legitimately purchase some of their songs. xP
Im responding to this because I think it is worth mentioning; Sleeper sort of broke up mutually. They played together again a few more times but unlike the Stone Roses or Elastica it was a mutual breakup. Two of bandmembers are teaching; Louise writes books. They can actually sit in the same room together; possibly even do another gig again; a rareity.
Yeah her books are pretty good. "Goodnight Steve McQueen" I thought was brilliant. Shame she's not singing these days, her voice was really sexy. Hope she's doing alright.
She even sold her guitars! the '90's are well and truly behind Louise now days. She was well and truly the sexiest woman in 1995, this the third album was a sad truth that it only takes second for it all to stop. I blame the bloody Spice Girls!
@wildenfree Dude, these guys never chose to be part of a movement...it was the press that created the whole Britpop thing, the same NME turds of this world that were masturbating over Sleeper and Echobelly only to change their mind and switch to r&b a few years later...but that's journalism for you, Whore-R-us.
Very similar to Dear Prudence by Beatles or Banshees.

I blame her hairdresser.
Seriously, Sleeper were a great band, if a little light and frothy.
Thing is, ALL the bands from that period bar Blur and Oasis, died on their arses after 96.
Even Pulp never again enjoyed the highs of that period, despite doing some of their best stuff.

Thats what happens if your part of a " movement" - Britpop
was of its time, burnt brightly then blew out.
Don,t worry I,m sure their will be a Britpop reunion in years to come. Everybody else has reformed!!!
