C86

English

Etymology

Named after C86, a compilation cassette released in 1986 by NME magazine on which independent rock featured heavily. The album title itself was a play on the labelling and length of blank compact cassettes—commonly C60, C90 and C120—combined with the year 1986.

Noun

C86 (uncountable)

(music) A genre of British rock music most prominent in the late eighties and early nineties, with a lo-fi aesthetic, unconventional instrumentation and romantic lyrics.

  The same papers that had championed C86 in the middle of the decade then spent years writing off small, pop-oriented bands such as Belle and Sebastian — particularly if they had an air of mimsy or femininity.
