Released in 1997, this record followed just two years after their hugely successful debut I Should Coco which featured the huge hit Alright. They recorded this follow-up at Sawmills Studio in Cornwall and the success of singles Going Out and Richard III quickly proved the band were not just a one-trick-pony, or one-record flash-in-the-pan. The record was harder and grittier than the previous, moving their music forward with the lyrics in particularly giving it a more serious edge. In an interview with Q Magazine frontman Gaz Coombes once said of the record  “The fact that it has sold more worldwide than I Should Coco means we can sleep at night.”
