Bands associated with Britpop in the mid-1990s often championed aspects of mod culture. Blur were fans of "Quadrophenia", with the film's star Phil Daniels featuring on the title track of the band's album "Parklife" and appearing in the song's video, whilst Oasis' Noel Gallagher struck up a high-profile friendship with Paul Weller. Around this time the UK music press championed a number of bands as constituting a new wave of the mod revival under the name "New Mod", including Menswe@r and the Bluetones, both of whom were later identified with Britpop.
