![]() ![]() Sure enough, the past year has brought new albums from two bands whose reunions once seemed impossible: Blur and Suede. ![]() In retrospect, that period looks more like a Britpop hangover than a Britpop revival-but in 2016, Britannia’s moment in the 20-year nostalgia cycle truly has arrived. By the early aughts, the movement had been reduced to a few bands making the worst albums of their careers and a smattering of “ Britpop dance nights” where American twenty-somethings could ritually cosplay an era they missed by half a decade and a few thousand miles. Now a decade since Rue Britannia’s 2006 debut, it seems impossible that Britpop nostalgia could have been prevalent and destructive enough by that time to demand such an elegant critique. ![]() If they succeed, Britannia will wander the earth zombie-like, distorting cultural memories of Britpop and poisoning younger generations with nostalgia. The embodiment of '90s Britpop, this deceased deity in a Union Jack baby tee has become the fixation of a cadre of “Retromancers”-fans plotting to recapture their lost youth by bringing her back. The goddess Britannia has been dead for the better part of a decade by the time we glimpse her reanimated corpse in Kieron Gillen and Jamie McKelvie’s cult-classic comic book Phonogram: Rue Britannia. ![]()
