Anyone who lists Clapton in an argument for Britain > America is a complete imbecile.
Where the fuck do you think he got his whole style from?

Imma be serious, this shit don't even matter.
No it doesn't, it's still a stupid thing to say though.
Eric Claptons a fucking faggot anyway, fuck him.
Anyway I noticed one of the new "up and coming big names" from BROOKLYN, New York, a band called "The Drums", are relevent to this thread, because theyre a perfect example of an American band basing pratically everything they do on British rock (in this case, 90's brit pop swag)
see for yourself
it doesnt get anymore 90s english than that. these guys are from brooklyn lol.
I give them credit though, they do it WELL lol, decent song too.
^^^the equally inane counterpoint to that argument would again be that non-american hip-hop as a whole is a facsimile, mr 'creepin on da come up'... and dude, your using the phrase '90s brit-pop swag' is in no way ironic.
wow! american indie bands that barely anyone has heard of emulate british rock. golly! brit music pwns! yippy!
and it's very weak that people keep rehashing arguments that me, dusk, bateman, tsa and visionz already shot down several pages ago.

Whats the hype?
Brits made the best rock music hands down.
What's retarded about this is that people are saying that the Americans are using the British style. The British have been using our style for decades. There really isn't much of a difference between a British singer and an American singer vocally.
The British artists have been ripping off Blues, Jazz, and Soul worse then any American has.
The Rolling Stones dick rode Lil Richie to the top.
The Beatles and Animals were ripping off all the classics at first. The Beatles were originally what amounts to an American hits cover band that eventually went their own way.
Then they come over here, renaissance our homegrown american music, and reap the profits. Can't say they're lousy, but they were British artists doing American music.
Then we evolved from there, but the Beatles are for all intents and purposes Americans. They idolized our culture, came over here, lived here, and died here. They're not British, they're from Britain.
