The Verve - A Northern Soul (2LP/180G)
The Verve’s A Northern Soul is widely regarded as one of the defining British alternative rock albums of the 1990s. Originally released in 1995, the record captures the band at their most intense and emotionally charged, blending soaring psychedelia, sweeping string arrangements and raw, deeply personal songwriting into a powerful and atmospheric listening experience.
Pressed here on heavyweight 180g vinyl across two LPs, A Northern Soul includes standout tracks such as “History”, “On Your Own”, “This Is Music” and the sprawling “Stormy Clouds”. The album marked a darker and more ambitious evolution for the band, with Richard Ashcroft delivering some of the finest vocal performances and lyrics of his career.
From moments of fragile beauty to huge walls of guitar-driven sound, A Northern Soul remains an album that rewards full-length listening, revealing new layers with every spin. Essential for fans of Britpop, shoegaze and expansive alternative rock, this 2LP edition is a superb way to experience one of The Verve’s most acclaimed releases on vinyl.
