Lion Pop was a pre-Britpop term first coined by the lead singer (Carl) from the band Cud to describe his music. The band, which emerged about 5 or 6 years before the emergence of the Britpop era, were a reaction to the baggy and indie-danceMadchester scenes that were popular in the early 1990s and were known for Carl's silver lamé shirts, a style continuation from 80s bands such as ABC.
