No-one's yet mentioned The Stone Roses or Happy Mondays. Anyone remember Echobelly, The Mock Turtles, The Soup Dragons, Blameless, or Marion? (That's Marion the indie band, not to be confused with Marilyn, the third-rate Boy George copyist from the 80s).
WaldoMcFroog mentioned The Audience, or theaudience as they preferred to write it, whose vocalist was a certain Sophie Ellis-Bextor. Whatever happened to her? ;-)
