I did like someone's comment that Catherine Wheel was a midpoint between the braininess of Radiohead (who opened for them) and the dunderheadedness of Oasis...seems about right.
Also, there's just *so much* Pink Floyd-ness on this album. I mean, in case you didn't get it, they basically reproduced the "radio" trick from Wish You Were Here on one track...and hired producer Bob Ezrin, who did The Wall...
Catherine Wheel - Adam and Eve
A huge recovery from Happy Days.
Dickinson, Futter, Hawes, and Sims expand their palette further, put together a collections of great, varied tracks, assisted by producers Bob Ezrin and Garth Richards.
Despite that, the band just never took off. There'd be one very weak follow-up, Wishville, and that's all she wrote.

And speaking of "Eat My Dust Your Insensitive Fuck", I didn't realize there was a video...directed by Stephen Dorff, of all people. And it's good (as is the song):
@dnanian Allow me to add my tribute. Ferment is comfortably in my top 5 albums of all time.

It's a little sad when you decide to scroll through a search for "Catherine Wheel" to see whether others have posted specifically about Ferment, and there are only about two other posts, and then mine, from 903 days ago.
Welp, re-listen anyway.
