Longpigs – The Sun Is Often Out (National Album Day Edition)

Format: Sun Coloured Vinyl

Originally released in 1996, the debut studio album from Sheffield-based band Longpigs is a definitive work of the post-Britpop era. Produced by Gil Norton and Ed Buller, the album features the breakthrough singles "She Said," "On and On," and "Lost Myself," blending anthemic guitar hooks with the distinctive, soaring vocals of Crispin Hunt. Longpigs established themselves as a primary force in the 90s alternative scene, with the band notably featuring guitarist Richard Hawley before his successful solo career. Their career is defined by a series of critically acclaimed live performances and a reputation for sophisticated, guitar-driven songwriting that earned them widespread praise during the height of the decade's guitar music revival. This special edition for National Album Day presents the 11-track collection on sun coloured vinyl, documenting a major milestone for a group that remains a cult icon of British indie-rock.
