British Culture in the mid 90s

chris-budget [Edit] [Delete] 10:22, 15 March '13

Alright dudes?

So in the mid 90s we had a massive players across the fields of music - (Oasis, Blur etc), fashion - (Alexander McQueen, Kate Moss etc) - and art (Damien Hirst / Tracey Emin etc).

As far as I can see no one has really stepped up to replace these chaps over the nearly 20 years, they certainly haven't been superceded in terms of cultural impact.

what was different in the 90s that enabled that level of success to be acheived? why hasn't in happened since? Is this an 90s phenomenon, or a post 90s malaise?

or is this just rose tinted specs, and we do still have big hitters? ( the only guys I can think of off the top of my head are One Dircetion tbh).

DIScuss - or not
