Our Take

Ah, the 90s - a time when the music was as exciting as the fashion was questionable. And leading the charge were The Boo Radleys with their seminal album "Giant Steps". Now, 30 years later, we have been blessed with a glorious reissue of this indie masterpiece.

Upon listening to this album, one cannot help but be transported back to the days of oversized flannel shirts and questionable haircuts. The blend of shoegaze, Britpop, and psychedelic influences makes for a truly unique listening experience that is as relevant today as it was back in 1993.

From the infectious hooks of "Lazarus" to the dreamy melodies of "Barney (...and Me)", The Boo Radleys showcase their ability to effortlessly blend pop sensibilities with experimental sounds. And let's not forget the iconic title track "Giant Steps" - a sprawling epic that is sure to send shivers down your spine.

The 30th Anniversary Edition of "Giant Steps" not only includes the original album but also a plethora of bonus tracks and unreleased material that will have even the most die-hard Boo Radleys fans salivating. This reissue is a fitting tribute to a band that helped define a generation of music lovers.

So, grab your bucket hat, dust off your CD player, and prepare to be blown away by the sheer brilliance of The Boo Radleys' "Giant Steps". It's a trip down memory lane that is not to be missed.

About the artist

The Boo Radleys

If the Boo Radleys were a cocktail, they'd be a concoction of swirling psychedelia, a splash of shoegaze, and a twist of Britpop, garnished with a dash of cheeky humour. This Merseyside band has been shaking up the music scene since the late 1980s, with a sound that can only be described as a sonic rollercoaster ride. Fronted by the enigmatic Sice Rowbottom, the Boo Radleys are perhaps best known for their 1995 masterpiece, "Wake Up!". This album catapulted them into the mainstream, earning them critical acclaim and a cult following of dedicated fans. But don't let their commercial success fool you - their music is anything but conventional. With their eclectic mix of influences, including The Beatles, My Bloody Valentine, and The Beach Boys, the Boo Radleys are a melting pot of sound that defies categorisation. From dreamy pop ballads to raucous guitar anthems, they have a knack for keeping listeners on their toes, never quite knowing what to expect next. But it's not just their music that sets them apart - it's their quirky sense of humour and infectious energy that makes them a joy to watch live. Whether it's Sice's playful banter with the crowd or the band's onstage antics, a Boo Radleys gig is guaranteed to put a smile on your face. So if you're in the mood for some musical mischief and a healthy dose of nostalgia, look no further than the Boo Radleys. With their genre-bending sound and irreverent charm, they're the perfect antidote to the mundane. So sit back, relax, and let the Boo Radleys take you on a wild ride through the whimsical world of indie pop. Cheers!
