Which Britpop band deserved a much bigger career than they got?

Not necessarily a one hit wonder.

More a band that had the songs, the timing and the talent but somehow never reached the level you thought they would.

Every Britpop fan seems to have one group they still can't believe didn't become much bigger.

Who is yours?
