If you’re going to own a Verve album best make sure it’s #AStormInHeaven
#NowPlaying

Yesterday, I was posting about the Verve and didn't even realise it was the 30th anniversary of their first album, A Storm in Heaven. Such a stunning, atmospheric album that doesn't get its full due. Wish I'd experienced them live back then (I was too busy being a jungle raver).

The Verve - Slide Away

#GreatAlbums1990s - #TheVerve#AStormInHeaven (1993). Verve initially purveyed a shoegaze wash similar to bands like Ride, albeit with a psychedelic and ambient fixations anchored by Nick McCabe’s textured guitar and Simon Jones’s thick bass. Vocalist Richard Ashcroft’s postmodern hippie stance was vastly appealing the leadup to Britpop, and tracks like “Slide Away” and “Blue” had the propulsion to generate early noise in the US. #GreatRockAlbums, #Music, #LP, #Reviews, #Rock, #AlternativeRock
