Then That Goes In There: A Pulp Primer
Pulp are an English alternative rock band formed in Sheffield in 1978. Their lineup consists of Jarvis Cocker (vocals, guitar), Russell Senior (violin, guitar), Candida Doyle (keyboards), Mark Webber (guitar), Steve Mackey (bass) and Nick Banks (drums). Throughout the 1980s, the band struggled to find success, but gained prominence in the UK in the mid-1990s with the release of the albums His ânâ Hers in 1994 and particularly Different Class in 1995, which reached the number one spot in the UK Albums Chart.  Pulpâs musical style during this period consisted of disco influenced pop-rock coupled with âkitchen sink dramaâ-style lyrics. Jarvis Cocker and the band became major figures in the Britpop movement, and were nominated for the Mercury Music Prize in 1994 for His ânâ Hers. (Wikipedia)
Cockerâs cunning lyrics are marked by his baritone moaning and screeching (donât let this put you off; itâs interesting), and often performed in spoken word. The lyrics often tell stories of charactersâ mishaps (Oh, Deborah do you recall etc.).Â
