Catherine Wheel - Happy Days
Regular price $44.00 Save $-44.00Product Description
-
They
were
of
a
size
and
scale
to
be
supported
by
the
upcoming
Radiohead.
Melody
Maker
said
that
Radiohead
were
like
Catherine
Wheel
as
they
"function
along
a
similar
catharsis/contrivance
axis,
ladling
existential
angst
into
skilfully
imposing
song
structures."
1995's
Happy
Days
found
the
group
travelling
further
into
a
hybrid
of
heavy
metal
and
improvisation
–
certainly
with
the
addition
of
Mark
Feltham
(from
Nine
Below
Zero)
on
harmonica,
who
had
added
his
distinctive
sound
to
the
later
Talk
Talk
albums,
the
group
create
a
mesmerising
sound
on
the
more
ambient
tracks,
offering
a
clear
pathway
to
later
groups
such
as
Mogwai.
There
is
still
room
for
some
anthemic
shoegaze,
however,
on
tracks
such
as
Shocking
and
Judy
Staring
Up
At
The
Sun,
which
features
guest
vocals
from
Tanya
Donelly.
This
re-issue
replicates
the
original
1994
Fontana
UK
2LP
release
with
gatefold
sleeve
and
bonus
track
"Glitter"
and
is
pressed
onto
high
quality
180g
black
vinyl.
