An essential for any musical anglophile, Rhino’s 4-CD The Brit Box highlights the best UK music culled from the last 15 years of the 20th century. Traversing seminal, indie, shoegaze and Brit-pop acts – 78 artists in all – Rhino made the ideal Brit mixtape you never had time to make. While it features well-known songs and artists (The Smiths, The Cure, New Order, James, Spiritualized), there are plenty of gems that didn’t make significant waves Stateside that complement the classics. The set is housed in a box representing a red English phone booth, complete with a battery-powered flickering light bulb.
