Description
Shed Sevens A Maximum High stands as a defining statement of mid-90s British guitar pop. Recorded in London with producer Chris Sheldon, the album sharpens the York bands sound into something more focused and immediate, building on the foundations of their earlier work. Written by Rick Witter, Paul Banks, Tom Gladwin and Alan Leach, the record distils the bands knack for direct, anthemic songwriting, pairing driving riffs with singalong hooks. Its impact was clear, reaching number 8 on the UK Albums Chart and spawning five Top 40 singles: Where Have You Been Tonight?, Getting Better, Going for Gold, On Standby and Bully Boy. Among them, Going for Gold remains the standout, becoming the groups biggest hit and a lasting fixture of the eras indie canon.
