Second Coming

Product Information

A typical example is the Spike Island press conference in 1990, which was attended by much of the world's music press. This ended in chaos when the gathered journalists began a small riot, believing the band to be deliberately upsetting them. Ultimately there was good reason. Given the inevitable comparison to that first album, the band let their insecurities get the best of them to the point where they doubted their own ability to pull off an adequate successor. Tensions reached their peak when the drummer, Remi, left the band a mere three weeks before a tour to support the album was set to begin. A year later, guitarist John Squire announced his departure, leaving singer Ian Brown and bassist Mani to try to salvage what was left on the band’s fragmented reputation.

[82] There are some who will say that Second Coming is a cursed album. For many, it will forever be tainted by its overly long gestation, emerging as it did five years after The Stone Roses' masterful debut.

To the Stone Roses I say this… your music is a gift to the world, it inspires me to help others be passionate about my pursuits and to love thy neighbour. The second coming is aptly named.

Breaking Into Heaven takes four-and-a-half minutes of tribal drumming, swampy atmospherics and occasional blasts of guitar before it actually gets going. When it does it is a groove-laden blues opus, complete with extensive solos (yes, plural), highlighting all the practice that John Squire put in while the Roses were spending five years in legal wrangles with their previous record company.
