I was listening to Louis XIV's "Slick Dogs and Ponies"- which isn't a very good CD- I started to think about what I'm calling brat rock. Those songs might still be good, but talk about less serious subjects, are sarcastic, mock things- including themselves- and don't take much anything seriously. That made me think of songs by Blink-182, Jet, the Fratellis, early Green Day. In fact Green Day seems to acknowledge the sound they were going for in their song "Brat". The Smiths might be the grand dad of brat rock. If "Girlfriend In A Coma" isn't brat rock then I don't know what is.
These next six songs are by Louis XIV.
Again this isn't a great CD, but I do love this song 1) "Air Traffic Control":
