Description

This week the lads strap on their parka jackets, lace up their Adidas Gazelles, and head straight into the noisy, swaggering world of 90s Britpop.


From the Blur vs Oasis war that split families down the middle, to the rise of Pulp, Suede, Elastica and the indie boom that made every teenager think they needed a guitar… we’re digging into the decade that defined a generation.


Brendan, Andy & Mike relive the soundtracks of their youth — the festival anthems, the late-night MTV sessions, the singles that lived forever on mixtapes, and the albums that absolutely were not as deep as we pretended they were.


Plus:

🎸 Who actually won the Britpop war?

🥊 Which bands aged like wine… and which aged like warm milk?

🇬🇧 Why Britpop captured the UK so completely (and whether it still holds up today).


It’s loud, it’s nostalgic, and it’s full of 90s swagger — jump in and relive the Britpop era!
