"Britpop is a subgenre of alternative rock that originated in the United Kingdom. Britpop emerged from the British independent music scene of the early 1990s and was characterised by bands influenced by British guitar pop music of the 1960s and 1970s. The movement developed as a reaction against various musical and cultural trends in the late 1980s and early 1990s"
....
"new British groups such as Suede and Blur launched the movement by positioning themselves as opposing musical forces, referencing British guitar music of the past and writing about uniquely British topics and concerns. These bands were soon joined by others including Oasis, Pulp, Supergrass, Sleeper and Elastica."
see i was going to mention my favourites..The Bluetones, Space, Suede, Ash....

I think the confusion here is largely down to the use of the word "Britpop"
over here it is a genre of rock music - more specifically an era of rock music in the 90's that was largely (completly) comprised of british rock bands
britpop is one-word.... with a separate definition than the two words "Brit Pop"
BritPop = "a subgenre of alternative rock that originated in the United Kingdom. Britpop emerged from the British independent music scene of the early 1990s and was characterised by bands influenced by British guitar pop music of the 1960s and 1970s"
whereas if you take it out of context and say "british pop" one could see how it could be misunderstood....though technically these days people wouldnt even say "british pop" as most people just call it Chart..........or "Commercial Shit"
