What a stupid analysis. "Britpop" is really a racist segregationalist movement, and American rock isn't. Jesus. That's just inane, cheap, inaccurate...and, well, who really cares. I love British bands, American bands...If it's good, it doesn't matter where it comes from, and the Brits have been turning out brilliant music since the 60s. Still are. As to influences? I could give a crap. I don't recall there being any mandate to include "black" influences for musical legitimacy. Black music is much more rooted in the American experience that it is in Britain's. Boy, there's a revelation.
