Probably the most baggy album you are ever likely to hear in your life! Absolute class, even if its only bought for 'weekender'. However every tune on this album is brilliant. Other stand out tracks include it's on, which is upbeat, cocky, also phobia which completely sums up paranioa. Liam Maher also sings in a cockney accent as well which makes it a bit different as this has never really been done before (not including the Small Faces or Chas & Dave). to say that Flowered up are a cockney Happy Mondays is harsh, as they should be treated as a great band, who sound original. Find out for yourself.

This band has produced a real mixture of styles and moods that just about works. They sound like a crisper Happy Mondays or a modern The Small Faces.
I really like the council house rock feel of the album. The lyrics seem like they are meant and nothing seems put on!
You really have to check out Weekender, what a great tune, it really is worth buying this CD just for the 12" version!

If for nothing else this album is worth buying just for the 12-inch version of Weekender on it - this band could have been bigger than the Happy Mondays. They were certainly a decent indie/dance crossover band - they had the tunes and a decent singer with attitude but then they go and split up after producing one of the all-time great British singles - Weekender - an anthem for every 9-5, monday to friday wageslave.

I downloaded the LP thinking that the 12" version of Weekender was the Andy Weatherall mix (which is absolutely amazing). Unfortunately it isn't. Read more
