- Essay from the year 2013 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Culture and Applied Geography, grade: 3,0, University of Regensburg (Institut für Anglistik und Amerikanistik), course: British and Irish Cultures, language: English, abstract: The high time of 'Britpop' was roughly to be found in the mid 90s, 1993-1997, of the 20th century (Scott 111) and at the same time, back then, it was mainly represented by the two groups, Oasis and Blur. The characteristical features of especially live performances, the pure sound of accoustic guitars and drums, emphasising the singer's voice (Bennett 14) and the remarkable melodious passages (Bennett 23) within the songs built a bridge over to the past, when the Beatles started their career (Silverton). As they were one of the first bands introducing that musical style in the 60s, they had in a certain way a pioneer role embodying the honest and traditional kind of handmade instrumental sounds. Essentially, 'Britpop' is the overall contrast to the appearing counterwaves of grunge by Nirvana and all the different styles of techno which were almost exclusively created by synthetic computer sounds (Bennett 14).
