1. SOUNDBITE (English) Maria Sherman, AP music writer:
"It’s so funny that, like, one of the great rivalries in music is within the same band. And then of course, you know, the Oasis and Blur lore. But something must have happened where they’re getting along, and it’ll be interesting to see what exactly that was. But I think culturally it makes a lot of sense for them to reunite too. Blur just played a bunch of dates. Pulp, I know, was reunited, played in the UK, and they’re coming to America next month in September. Culturally, I think Britpop is sort of experiencing a kind of revival. I mean, the Dua Lipa album from earlier this year was influenced by Britpop. A. G. Cook, who is known as the producer on Charli XCX’s ‘Brat,’ put out a Britpop album titled ‘Britpop’ earlier today, I mean, this year – excuse me. The Fontaines D.C. album, I feel like very heavily I was, you know, listening to it and like there are a lot of Oasis-y moments on this, so it sort of makes sense for them to be like, ‘alright, if we’re back in the cultural zeitgeist, might as well get back together.’"
