10 Most Underrated Britpop Albums

10. Ash – Trailer

Most Britpop fans are well-acquainted with Ash’s fantastic first full-length album 1977, but they may not be aware of the lesser known mini album which came before it. Entitled Trailer, the seven-song set showcases the group’s spikier backbone when compared to their more pop-influenced contemporaries.

And boy do they deliver the goods. In just 24 minutes, Ash blaze their way through this blistering and raw record in a way that’s uncommon for a group in their infancy. It may have been released as a taste of what’s to come, but there’s still plenty of worthwhile cuts to absorb here on their own.

Don’t discount Trailer just because it’s a mini album. It hits just as hard as some of the band’s best and most well-known material.
