Welsh rock/alt rock band...
their debut album....
one of only three not to peak at #1 on the UK charts...
love the vocals of Kelly Jones (yes, Kelly is a male!)...
one of the best rock bands of the last twenty years IMO...
own several of their album plus a Jones solo album...
album would score a borderline love from me coming in at 2.3
so yeah, great rock band, well worth a listen if you haven't already done so...
from the album, my favourite track:
