I'll change it to "Bury Not-Prog" then!
Icelandic Pixie Bollocks is NOT Bjork, actually!
Boos right, Credit wrong, Fela right, Divine wrong, Bush of Ghosts right.

Electrelane are in there, but not as that. Wrong on Aphex.

Dorset Vagina Rock is so funny and wrong. And a great name for the next album.

It's actually quite fun feeding your genre tags into Google and seeing the results. Doesn't really help, but entertaining.
What on earth is 'Postpop'???
― Rob M v2, Friday, 25 April 2008 11:39 (sixteen years ago) link
found a review which called Guided by Voices postpop. I'm not sure that helps. What came to mind for me was the last Bjork album. but with SM it's probably Guillemots or something.
― Thomas, Friday, 25 April 2008 11:47 (sixteen years ago) link
Postpop is Disco Inferno!
― Scik Mouthy, Friday, 25 April 2008 12:04 (sixteen years ago) link
I think Guillemots are down as Twee Indie Jazz Pop.
― Scik Mouthy, Friday, 25 April 2008 12:05 (sixteen years ago) link
Hmm... yeah, I kind of see where you're going with DI as Postpop.
