Curacao blue colored vinyl. The Lightning Seeds' Dizzy Heights is a shining example of mid-90s Brit-pop brilliance. Led by the talented Ian Broudie, known for his production work with Echo & The Bunnymen, this album beautifully blends light pop-rock with majestic acoustics and New Order/Pet Shop Boys-esque keyboards. While the music exudes a happy and upbeat vibe, Broudie's lyrics reveal a deeper, more introspective side. Songs like 'Touch And Go' and 'Imaginary Friends' explore themes of friendship and loneliness, adding layers of emotional depth. The track 'Waiting For Today To Happen,' co-written by Nicky Wire of the Manic Street Preachers, is a poignant piece likely influenced by the disappearance of Richey Edwards. The cover of The Turtles' 'You Showed Me' is both chilling and sexy, offering a fresh take on a classic song. Despite a consistent sound throughout the album, each track brings its unique charm. Dizzy Heights is perfect for those moments when you want elegant pop music that resonates emotionally.
