71. Pulp | This Is Hardcore
"This Is Hardcore" by Pulp from the album This is Hardcore (1998)
And this, perhaps, is how Britpop ended: not with a bang, but a whimper, as the pop movement's slyest dogs attempted to bow out with a graceful whoosh, sliding on frictionless floors as softly pulsing strings backgrounded the throbbing insecurity and sexual shame that were Jarvis Cocker's lyrical calling cards.
