I am proud of my Gen-X'ed-ness.  Would much rather be associated with my generation than any before or after.

 A: In "crazy, myopic scenester girl" world? [/b]
In betty's obviously.
 
 After a quick read of all the posts, a few comments.
 
 The Specials in the 90's??? We are talking about Terry Hall and co. aren't we?
 
 I'd go along with Oasis, The Verve, Morrissey of course, Counting Crows and add James (Laid) and Belle& Sebastian (If you're feeling sinister)
