* And per Ethan's complaint YES, I DO mean this in an indie-centric way. "Electronica" was just opening up into unprecedented far-flung territories, the whole alt-rock explosion left "indie" scrambling for new territory, and the two were both colliding with these internationalist pop ideas and German, French, Brazilian, and Japanese influences and for a moment these territories were unstable and about to get pretty damned interesting.

Goth-Pop RevivalGarbage, Placebo, Suede - all the crap bits about Grunge but with eyeliner and men dressed in bin bags
Big BeatA bunch of goons from Brighton making dance music out of children's cartoons is never going to be a dance revolution.
Jungle becomes Drum'n'BassHeralding a wave of boring loops with no energy to them at all. New Forms was a crap album, I WANT BIG BEEFY BASSLINES DAMNIT!
Britpop goes crap:People don't remember Britpop for This Is A Low and Common People, no. People remember a bunch of soundalikes wearing waterproofs and making tuneless bilge about god knows what and Liam Gallagher flipping the bird at the camera.
Poppy Ska-Punk :No Doubt, Reel Big Fish and that other band started it and before you knew every Hollywood High-School Prom band was fronted by a chubby goateed part-dude with a chequered tie. Queue a billion Ska-Punk covers of cheesy 80s songs.

1997 was a far worse year for music and almost put me off all recorded sound forever.

I realised/estimated last night that this is the 10th anniversary MONTH I got into punk rock properly, which without sounding old and shit, was probably more important (to me) in hindsight
