Post-Britpop is a subgenre of British
alternative rock, made up of bands that emerged from the late 1990s and early 2000s in the aftermath of
Britpop, influenced by acts like
Pulp,
Oasis and
Blur, but with less overtly British concerns in their lyrics and making more use of American rock and
indie influences, as well as experimental music. Post-Britpop bands that had been established acts, but gained greater prominence after the decline of Britpop, such as
Radiohead and
The Verve, and new acts such as
Travis,
Stereophonics,
Feeder and particularly
Coldplay, achieved much wider international success than most of the Britpop groups that had preceded them, and were some of the most commercially successful acts of the late 1990s and early 2000s.
