WEDDING PRESENT, THE
LIVE 2012:SEAMONSTERS PLAYED LIVE IN MANCHESTER (SCOPITONES)
The Wedding Present, recorded and filmed at the Ritz, Manchester, on 9 November 2012. This double disc release includes both a CD and a DVD of the concert.
Following the release of Seamonsters in 1991 the Guardian newspaper noted that: "Engineer Steve Albini has given The Wedding Present considerable weight, with Gedge's voice trickling between banks of scowling guitars" and went on to feature the LP in its list of '1,000 albums to hear before you die'.
Despite its uncompromising sound the album reached No. 13 in the British album charts and has been hailed as a classic.
