Query: This is hardcore...yeah, hardcore rubbish!

There seems to be a new trend that's been happenning with great English bands. This trend is changing from being a great British band, to being a mediocre American sounding British band. It happenned first to Blur, whose 1997 self titled release more closely resembled Pavement than the witty, often anti-Americanism of their previous four albums. Now Blur's mates Pulp are at it. Pulp, who have been together for over 15 years, but just gained notoriety in the past few years, had just reached perfection. The last album, 'Different Class' was absolute genius. But after the departure of Russell Senior, their guitarist/electric violinist, they appear to have lost their charm. Of course the American press loved the album, because it is radio friendly, unoriginal material. Any true fan of Pulp is let down by the change of direction of a great band. Let's just hope they get back on the right path (do it for the fans, Jarv!!)
