pic related, definitely
ian anderson is the most British man in the universe
Brits are scum
Hidden gem , worth checking out if you love cockney rock
This is certainly up there for most British.
>>65424966
I dunno, I always kind of felt like that album drew quite a bit from '60s-'70s Americana-type sounds, like they were trying to be souped-up Gram Parsons with dashes of Dylan/Byrds.

for sure
it must suck to be british
>>65425542
why?
>>65425542
Oh it does. What's so very British is that their whole cultural outlook embraces that life.
Anything that is praised by NME desu
>>65425571
all these albums are mediocre for the most part
>>65424966
my god OP, you finally nailed it. I heard that album in high school and was so weirded by it, couldn't pin it down. but that's it.......they're just so fucking british......like you guys can just keep that shit over in britain and make a new one for us over here..lol
I dunno if you can equate Britishness of an album with quality or even at times artistic merit. These are just albums that embody the UK.
>>65425662
He asked for british feeling albums.Not good albums by British artists
>>65425672
my god that album looks british as motherfucking balls
>>65425706
for better or for worse, this is an extremely british album
doesn't mean it's good
>>65425712
Their whole discography is a showcase of unchecked Britishness
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qhAQfrVCqhw
Step up, /mu/.
>>65425996
Maybe it's me but I'd have chosen Definitely Maybe over morning glory.
These guys have just sold out two nights at a 36,000 cap venue over here, and have played UK arenas for just under 10 years.
Never heard a single mention of them on this board, but even with an Italian guitarist they play the "we're English" card plenty.
>>65426106
Yeah, I'm surprised they're not more internationally popular.
>>65426106
That album was shit
>>65426142
just the album? thought artist in general......lol
ITT: NMEcore
>>65426106
Didn't U2 or somebody rip off Club Foot?
>>65426169
well it is the most British of music magazines as it basically dictates taste for half of the youth
>>65426165
First 3 albums where alright
anyone?
>>65426165
They're radio prog rock essentially, Velociraptor is a brilliant album, as is West Ryder. Considering they're one of the biggest UK bands around, some of their songs are surprisingly abstract and cool, e.g.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a838F0EV-8Q
>>65426106
Their debut and ...Lunatic Asylum are good, but goddamn is that album terrible.
>>65425744
I really like UK hardcore even though it's pretty terrible from a musical perspective
Scott Brown's Hardwired is pretty good though
>>65426106
I saw them in New York a few years ago. Not bad.

>>65426219
I already posted it =]
>>65425292
never noticed how the covers are similar
>>65426297
Yeah, Scott Brown's stuff manages to transcend the negative connotations of the genre. UK Hardcore is a guilty pleasure of mine.
This one is 90's British rave culture
>>65425024
oi mate: The Musical
>>65426415
where? didn't see it.
but if you like the rakes i like you, so good work.
>>65426423
Lol perfect summery of that album
OK Computer.
Refute this?
>>65426455
I was just remarking on the album covers.
Never mind.
Big beat was pretty much a British thing
>>65426165
West Ryder Pauper Lunatic Asylum or however it's called was good
>>65426513
What makes the album particularly British?
All of Radiohead's middle-later stuff seems kind of outside of that sort of classification.
>>65426569
almost posted this one =]
>>65426555
Fantastic
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ygGw_zo_W8A
>all these post
>songs aren't even about England.
americans will never understand this album
Anyone else listen to The Cribs? I never hear them mentioned, but pic related is 10/10 album. Johnny Marr joined on their next album.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GzqZborBWtA
>>65426415
I think Scott's sampling isn't exceptionally clever, but it's well executed, and his music is a lot less brash and cheesy than most of the other artists. Fracus and Darwin is almost there at times as well
Some of the Darren Styles, and especially s3rl is just hypersaturated party music without making the effort to be real music.
Still fun though
What kind of music do football hooligans and chavs listen to?
Also, why do chavs look like slavs?
>>65426608
The Jam are my second favorite band, but they never had a perfect album. Setting Sons could have been if Weller kept the original concept. Their singles are what made them great.
First favorite is Oasis, haha
>>65425266
True, but Modern life is rubbish much more so
>>65426666
okay fool, years ago I posted this shit on /b/ and I swear to god I got the same exact response. I bet it was you fool.
>I personally think sound affects is perfect.
>>65426635
yes, i love the cribs. the johnny marr album was probably their worst (early shit was the best) but it was still really good
>>65426370
had never heard of these guys before you posted that. already picked up this album, it's amazing.
>>65425292
Didn't Zed Bias do a mix called Original Pirate Material? Hard to get more UK than UK garage
>>65426695
I never post on /b/ and have only been on 4chan for...a year and a half? But that period was their peak, yeah. Going Underground/Dreams of Children between the two albums in particular.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CCwZeOvqsgE
>>65426130
This album more British t.b.h
>>65426777
ah fine fine. Love the Jam but the best mod revival album in my book is The Lambrettas - Beat Boys in the Jet Age.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dnduzRWiCmc
I thought we'd see more prog here.
>>65426655
Yeah, s3rl doesn't really count in my mind. He's just selling a scene. It's so vapid.
>>65426792
yeah, I can see that
>>65426917
Canterbury Scene is underrepresented itt
>>65426850
Wow, haven't heard that one. Sounds great so far. Thanks
Relatively obscure, great, great album. Kinda sounds like Radiohead?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dutG1mcfkpo
I feel good, yes wonderful, good
>>65427013
Another obscure classic:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SE28yCN-Mbw
Anyone else ever heard this one?
Not as good as CLSM Presents Hardcore Revolution, but a bit of a breakbeat hardcore gem, and the skits in it are exceptionally British
Smaller, featuring Digsy of Digsy's Dinner fame, is surprisingly fantastic. Noel Gallagher plays on this track:

I'm actually surprised none of you posted this.
Shame on you for not mentioning Caravan in a thread about really british albums
The La's - There She Goes

definitely this
i fucking hate lad culture and all these albums just embrace it
growing up in Sheffield i had to deal with people constantly playing the artic monkeys

Thirsting for a horn of ale or jug of mead,

>>65425662
well British people are also mediocre for the most part
>>65426105
Yeah, it's definitely more British. What's the Story? has American leanings.

THIS MAKES ME PROUD
This album is the Winston Churchill of extremely British music.
How has no one posted this yet
The jam is
>>65425337
Just wanted to post it but it's already here.
Here is the opening track if someone wonders.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=09ZeMEAnt-M
As if is this is not enough it was unavailaible to buy for a day or few for other countries.
>>65425024
First thought too ^^
Alan's Psychedelic Breakfast
Most British song ever
>>65431798
which is something we're sort of proud of for some reason
This is one of the most British albums. It basically encapsulates the whole feeling of being in London at night.
All of the rock stuff posted above borrows too much from the US to be a singularly British sound.
>mfw nobody's posted the fall yet
>>65432304
Garage is American as rock
>>65432626
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garage_music_(US_garage)

Burial is garridge, not garage
How can Americans even compete
>>65432519
i came here to post this
>>65426352
Nice to see someone from my area
>>65426255
They've always been a much more interesting band than their singles would suggest. Their well-known songs have some of the catchiest and punchiest riffs in modern radio rock, but their deeper cuts are generally really atmospheric and psychedelic.Examples below.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OzijrKatWOE
They're yet to do an album that I love all the way through and their last was was a pretty big let down, but they're still worth checking out for their great songs.
>>65432024
Why did you do this?
>>65434637
Because it made him proud?
>no-one's mentioned Half Man Half Biscuit yet
>>65426339
They're from America though
>>65426106
They are the ultimate ladcore band
Damn this thread is basically all I listened to when I was 15
british music truly is the GOAT
how can Yanks even compete?
>>65432024
LMAO
>>65428330
You sound like a fucking puff!
