No britpop is the period in the 90s with Oasis, Blur, Pulp, etc. Britpop - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. The Kooks are indie pop really.
Klaxons are indie/dance and Bloc Party are indie/alternative/dance, neither are "pop".
Ahh I know the feeling. Maybe just explore a bit in the free time you have and try to get into a conversation somehow.
Bullshit. Maybe if your school only has complete bitches.
Arcade Fire, Stars, of Montreal, The New Pornographers, Klaxons, Interpol, MGMT, Mystery Jets.
Good to hear Pixies and Radiohead will probably record this year, too.
Muse were good but not that amazing for me. Decemberists won the day by a large margin. No I didn't see TTT because they clashed with Kasabian. I saw TTT's performance on channel [v] and he seemed pretty off key.
