Anos 90: box-set traz raridades da cena independente britânica

Os anos 90 na Grã-Bretanha assistiram ao estouro do Britpop, que atingiu sucesso maciço, com bandas como Blur e Oasis.

Sempre há, porém, um caminhão de singles que passaram despercebidos ou aquelas bandas de sucesso cult ou mediano.

Dia 21 de março, a Edsel colocará no mercado os quatro CDs da box-set Lost Alternatives. São 71 faixas, escolhidas pelo jornalista, radialista e DJ Steve Lamacq.
