Aka the album that killed Britpop. A dark, seedy, filthy comedown album. The main album has aged very well (although the 5+ minute single note outro is still unecessary).
The bonus disc of b-sides, demos and other rareties ranges from songs good enough to have been on the album to pointless dicking about on synthesisers but is still listenable.
Best track
Disc one: This is Hardcore
A gloriously sleazy chorus-free 7 minute romp that was for some reason released as a single
Disc two: It’s a dirty world
The use of the electric horn alone is enough to shade this for me.
