Home / Alternative & Indie / This Is Hardcore
A dark, cinematic comedown from Britpop fame, seedy and ambitious. Bold and acclaimed. A brave follow-up to Different Class. Released in 1998, it's one of Pulp's later high points.
On vinyl: Vinyl can be scarcer than the CD from this era, so it's worth looking for a recent repressing.
