The Verve
Urban Hymns

[ Virgin Records / CD ]

Release Date: Monday 15 September 1997

This is one brilliant album - featuring "Bittersweet Symphony", "The Rolling People", "Space and Time", "The Drugs Don't Work", "Sonnet" and "Lucky Man".

'Urban Hymns' is the album that took The Verve from Wigan to the world - going platinum in the States and receiving Q magazine's inaugural Classic Album award in 2007.

More song-oriented than previous albums - although still with a place for cosmic Verve songs in the shape of "The Rolling People" & "Space and Time" it sold 5 million copies worldwide.

"Bitter Sweet Symphony"s huge orchestral groove took the band to another level altogether; "The Drugs Don't Work" shot to Number One and along with "Sonnet" and "Lucky Man", 'Urban Hymns' became the soundtrack of that time.
