Album Description
Available in:
Bummed was the second album by British band Happy Mondays. It was released in November 1988. The album's sound is noticeably different from any preceding or succeeding albums in the Madchester genre. This can be explained by the producer, Martin Hannett, who was notable for pioneering use of electronics in music. What is most noticeable production-wise on this album is the use of echo and reverb on the drum sound; while some fans and critics appreciate this production work for being groundbreaking and unique (not least for the devastating power and volume it endowed the record with when played in clubs), others have criticized it for the claustrophobic effects it renders on the music.
The album arrived at a time when the Madchester genre was only beginning to formulate into what could be termed a "scene", closely connected to acid house. However, on this album the Happy Mondays played mostly pure rock music, with funk rhythms played on the drums and bass guitar and electronic flourishes showcased by the keyboard melodies. The real dance influence shone through when the songs were remixed by people such as Paul Oakenfold. This was when the band first made a cultural impact on a regional and national level.
