All You Good Good People

October 27, 1997 · Fierce Panda

Find on Amazon

This EP captures the exact moment when the swagger of the 1990s Britpop scene began to trade its irony for earnest, heart-on-sleeve emotionality. It sounds like the transition from a crowded, smoky pub to the wide-open expanse of a stadium, maintaining the grit of the former while reaching for the scale of the latter.

The music is anchored by a grand, percussive piano style that feels more like a lead guitar, driving the melodies forward with a sense of purpose and weight. It is the sound of West Yorkshire ambition, where the gray skies are countered by brass sections and soaring vocal hooks.

Moments Worth Listening For
The explosive entry of the brass section in the title track that transforms a piano ballad into a massive anthem.
The way Danny McNamara's voice cracks slightly during the more intimate, stripped-back verses of the b-sides.
The sustained, ringing guitar chords that bridge the gap between the soaring choruses and the contemplative bridges.
