英式摇滚（英语：Britpop）是另类摇滚的类型之一，源自于英国九零年代初期的独立音乐圈，其中以几个受到英国六七零年代吉他流行乐影响的乐团最具代表性。这种音乐类型，发展成为对抗八零年代末及九零年初期音乐及文化的潮流，特别是针对来自美国的Grunge风潮。随着美国Grunge乐团入侵，新兴的英国乐团如Suede和Blur首先发声，自诩为反对派的音乐力量，延续过去英国吉他流行乐风，并且在歌曲中特别写入关于英国的主题。许多乐团包括Oasis、Pulp、Supergrass、Sleeper和Elastica，纷纷加入响应。

Britpop is a subgenre of pop rock and alternative rock, that originated in the UK. It describes the musical and cultural movement in the mid 1990s which emphasized "Britishness" in its music and attitude, and produced bright, catchy pop music partly in reaction to the US led grunge music and the UK's own shoegazing music scene. The most successful bands associated with the movement are Oasis, Blur, Suede and Pulp; those groups would come to be known as its "big four". Though Britpop is viewed as a marketing tool, and more of a cultural moment than a musical style or genre, there are musical conventions and influences the bands grouped under the Britpop term have in common, such as showing elements from the British pop music of the Sixties, glam rock and punk rock of the Seventies, and indie pop of the Eighties in their music, attitude, and clothing. An influence they shared in particular was the Smiths whose lead singer Morrissey championed a nostalgic view of Britain. Britpop was a media driven focus on bands which emerged from the independent music scene of the early 1990s - and was associated with Cool Britannia which evoked the Swinging Sixties and the British guitar pop music of that decade.
