Making a minor splash in the Manchester scene of the mid-1990s, this album was recognised mostly for the impressively rock-steady, neo-psychedelic single "Sway". The rest of the album doesn't know if it wants to be more of a traditional rock-out or a White Album-esque Britpop effort. Either way, the band fares much better with the follow-up album, Moseley Shoals, which rode the Oasis wave into the mid-'90s, with Paul Weller assisting on backing vocals and keyboards. --Beth Bessmer
