Oasis were among those featured in Kevin Cummins’ 2020 book.
Kevin Cummins has picked established favourites, b-sides, rare cuts and classic single edits from artists such as Oasis, Radiohead and New Order on a 71-track compilation which is accompanying his While We Were Getting High: Britpop And The ‘90s book.
That book collected some of Cummins’ most recognisable work from a decade with the NME which kept his camera lens firmly fixed on the mid-90s music scene in Britain, and pretty much all of that era’s leading lights will be found on the Caught Beneath The Landslide compilation when it’s released on May 14th.
“It was always my ambition to have a companion album to the book, a chance to enjoy the music of that era, music as timeless as the images,” Cummins reflects.
“When I was selecting photos for my book, I took to Twitter to ask fans if certain bands could be considered part of the genre. Several musicians joined in to deny they were ever part of Britpop. ”
“The Manics were never considered part of the genre, nor Primal Scream, and much as I would have like to include them I chose not to. So it pleases me that we can feature both bands and many more in this collection, with its broader take on Indie music in ‘90s Britain.”
