As Britpop began to wane, certain British bands started to abandon the emphatic, polished sound that we were used to from Blur and Oasis in favour of a more gritty, energetic rock style. ‘Word Gets Around’ by Stereophonics is a very easy to listen to album that transcends both Rock and Pop individually and was one of those transitional albums that kept the ideals & attitude of the 90s, but added a raw and melodic personality that became synonymous with early 2000s British Rock.
APOLOGIES: Laz's microphone was intermittently cutting out so we switched to the camera microphone whilst we get the normal mic sound sorted!
