Catherine Wheel - Adam and Eve
A huge recovery from Happy Days.
Dickinson, Futter, Hawes, and Sims expand their palette further, put together a collections of great, varied tracks, assisted by producers Bob Ezrin and Garth Richards.
Despite that, the band just never took off. There'd be one very weak follow-up, Wishville, and that's all she wrote.
Future Boy, live, from the tour that followed this release:

I did like someone's comment that Catherine Wheel was a midpoint between the braininess of Radiohead (who opened for them) and the dunderheadedness of Oasis...seems about right.
Also, there's just *so much* Pink Floyd-ness on this album. I mean, in case you didn't get it, they basically reproduced the "radio" trick from Wish You Were Here on one track...and hired producer Bob Ezrin, who did The Wall...

@dnanian oh, wow. That’s really interesting. WYWH is a fave.
I found them when Chrome came out, and only managed to discover more work by them thanks to your posts here. -

@dnanian looooves me some Catherine Wheel. Saw them in concert a few times, once in Ohio of all places.

@octothorpe Alas, I never did catch them...was too busy when they were touring.
Brian Futter said maybe they're going to do a reunion tour in 2027, but I have my doubts.

Growing up in Boston, not a lot of people I knew liked them and I could never understand why. The first time I heard “Black Metallic” it blew my mind.Adam and Eve is a great fucking album.
Unfortunately, somebody stole my vinyl copy from my house during a party.
