Various - Boys Will Be Girls - The Roots Of Britpop (@256)












It was 10 years ago, by the end of summer, when Oasis released their album "Be Here Now". The numerous fans were expecting the third masterpiece in a row... but they were disappointed (at least most of them). It wasn't that it was a bad album, it was simply much different to what Oasis had released since; heavier and slower, without obvious singles. Some months later, it was proved that this album finally had put the tombstone in the whole britpop era, which undoubtedly gave us some unforgettable albums and songs.
This latest upload offers a premium cd offered by the German issue of Rolling Stone which explores the sound that influenced many of the artists of the britpop boom.
