Happy Mondays
With the recent creation of britpop in 1989, many new bands were emerging to pinpoint and define the sound of this very fresh new genre. Two of these bands were The Stone Roses and the Happy Mondays, however in my opinion the Happy Mondays 3rd album 'Pills n Thrills and Bellyaches' is much superior to any of the Stone Roses catalogue.
This album perfectly balances between embracing the old, such as using classic guitar sounds and licks as well as bongos which are used to great effect, and pushing forward from the 80's into the 90's. The constant tempo and rhythmic change between songs gives you a constantly refreshing listen, and the beats are so damn addictive and you could listen to them for hours. This really is a benchmark album for music and usually flies under the radar for most people. GREAT!
