Or call it the "Britpop poll," even though some of these musician/bands are not from England (Travis, etc.) and some would hate to be labeled as such (Travis, I think Manic Street Preachers, etc.). I had to decide between albums to put in for some bands (Parklife or Blur, which The Verve album, etc.), and I did not put in OK Computer for Radiohead for a reason. Out of these albums from the Britpop era (I would say 1993-2000, with the Stone Roses' and Idlewild's being two exceptions as these two bands should be recognized here), which ones are your favorites? Feel free to choose as much as you want.

I'm kinda disappointed at the lack of the Libertines. Voted for Coldplay/Muse though, definitely my top two.

The Libertines are not really in the same era that I was going for though.

Haha yeah I thought so too. I wouldn't call them britpop though, but that's my opinion.
