No, I didn't tag them specifically but it's very easy to put two and two together. In the case of the second one the poster mentions Radiohead right in between other Brit Pop bands.
I think I was trying to highlight the chronological aspect of the genres mentioned and how there was a lot of overlap. If I were to pinpoint the main defining points of " britpop" I would probably refer to the somewhat sanitized and commercial nature of the product. They did sell an awful lot . I already stated on post#16 that I didn't consider Radiohead to be anywhere near " britpop"
