18. Blur - Modern Life Is Rubbish
May 10, 1993
Critic Score
82
5 reviews
Modern Life remains a finely observed, tartly disillusioned snapshot of post-Thatcher Britain, buoyed by exquisite pop hooks.
10. The Verve - Urban Hymns
September 29, 1997
Critic Score
87
8 reviews
Recommended uses for Urban Hymns-- reading Tolkien, making love, driving at night through Kentucky/Scottish hills, any old time you're tired of the chug and drag of modern rock.
7. Pulp - This Is Hardcore
March 30, 1998
Critic Score
83
9 reviews
Fact: Both types of song make This is Hardcore a great late- late- night listen.
6. Elastica - Elastica
March 13, 1995
Critic Score
85
6 reviews
With its pithy, searing songs about sex, groupies, and ennui, the self-titled 1995 debut from Elastica captured the whirlwind of the early-’90s Britpop explosion.
1. Pulp - Different Class
October 30, 1995
Critic Score
91
9 reviews
On 1995's Different Class, Pulp and Jarvis Cocker were arty outsiders worming their way into the lives of ordinary folk, and they became pop in its most democratically widespread sense.
