Yet Britpop still managed to plumb far lower depths than Cast.

I'm genuinely struggling to think of any
Apart from every single thing Oasis did, but that sort of goes without saying. Common People has to be a particular low point.

It goes without saying that everything that Oasis did was terrible.
There were several long-forgotten bands who jumped on the Britpop bandwagon to try to claim their 15 minutes who were atrocious.
There were however, a few bands lumped in with Britpop that were quite good though.
I think the worst genre to be tagged in though would have to be Post-Britpop.

We do not speak of Suede
I'm not familiar with this "post-Britpop", although it sounds like a worst case scenario devised by military bigwigs planning the future of the species after a nuclear explosion designed to stop any further godawful music being made

Common People is an excellent pop song

Pulp were an excellent pop band.

It would be if not for the music
and the lyrics. And the utter twat singing it.

You haven't been this wrong in ages.
Pulp were the only good thing to come out of the whole Britpop debacle.

Well, I also like Suede, but I know that sets me up for a whirlwind of abuse.

That really does undermine any chance you had of getting me to see your point of view old boy
Surely Pulp predated Britpop and just piggybacked it for greater record sales anyway?

Yeah, they did. But His & Hers was effectively launched and received as a debut album.
it was virtually impossible to find out anything about their back catalogue at the time.

And Suede are great, if you can pretend it's someone other than Brett Anderson fronting them.

I can't
So no. See also the Smashing Pumpkins

I'm in the awkward position of agreeing wholeheartedly with you about Pulp
Yet finding your views on Suede containing several elements of wrong.
I could never like Suede, no matter how hard I tried.
