‘Bizarro’ by THE WEDDING PRESENT
Released: 23 October 1989
Second longplayer
ALL MUSIC review: “The Wedding Present’s second proper studio album, ‘Bizarro’ cut down a bit on the frenetic jangle the band was known for in its early days and replaced it with healthy doses of darkness and power. Adding some fuzzy, crunchy distortion to give the guitars some hefty impact, slowing the tempos down to speeds that allow vocalist David Gedge to squeeze more heartbroken despair and bleak sarcasm out of every line, and generally upping their
game in every way, the album is the fullest realization of the Wedding Present’s sound yet.”
Score: 4/5 – Full review here.
