The History Of Jop Part 15 aka In the time of chimpanzees I was a monkey

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

If it's Thursday, it must be 1994! The grip of alt.rock and hip-hop - mostly alt.rock - on the Pazz and Jop poll is close to total, and Anglophiles aren't carrying much weight. This does mean that we've got a lot of tracks to rate that never came near a Now album, though!

NINE ticks out of 27 songs.

they really weren't that bad, probably the best of the bunch even (the bunch being all the bands that get Britpop label, except Pulp perhaps but Elastica had more OOMPH than Pulp, often, even if it was just cos they were rippin off Wire or whatever)
