Camera Obscura - Let's Get Out of this Country
Since Britpop is pretty much dead, what have you been listening to lately ? For me, it's sissy music, all the way. The new video for Camera Obscura has been out for a while, but I thought maybe you might enjoy seeing it:I recently saw them in concert, see a picture of them:

Phonogram Comic Book
I wrote about this earlier this month:

This is great. There is a new comic called Phonogram that apparently owes its covers to Britpop.
The first issue is a tribute to Elastica and the second is to Black Grape AND Echobelly.
According to http://www.newsarama.co...
Subsequent issues will reference Oasis' DEFINITELY MAYBE, Blur's MODERN LIFE IS RUBBISH, Black Grape's IT'S GREAT WHEN YOU'RE STRAIGHT, YEAH!, Manic Street Preachers' THE HOLY BIBLE and Suede's self-titled debut.
Unfortunately, no Sleeper
