Episode 102 is here, The wheel does it’s thing and picks the second album by the band Bush, 1996’s 3x platinum Razorblade Suitcase. Is this the last grunge album? Sav and Mark go over side one! Stay Tuned!
Razorblade Suitcase is the second studio album by English rock band Bush, released on 19 November 1996 by Trauma and Interscope Records. The follow-up to their 1994 debut Sixteen Stone, it was recorded at Abbey Road Studios in London with engineer and producer Steve Albini. Its sound is more raw than that of its predecessor and has frequently been compared to Nirvana‘s In Utero (1993), which was also produced and engineered by Albini. The album is widely regarded as being the last major “grunge” album of the 1990s.
Razorblade Suitcase debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200, selling 293,000 copies in its first week of sales in the United States. To date, it remains the only Bush album to top the Billboard 200.
