Seamonsters

Seamonsters is the third studio album by English rock band the Wedding Present. It was recorded in ten days in 1991 by American producer Steve Albini at Pachyderm Studio in Cannon Falls, Minnesota. Albini had earlier recorded two EPs with the group; Brassneck and 3 Songs and, as with those records, Seamonsters has a rougher, harsher sound than the group's earlier two albums. In deliberate contrast to the full sentences featured on previous recordings—something for which the group had often been parodied within the music press—all of the songs on Seamonsters have one-word titles. The album enjoyed a strongly positive critical reception. Guitarist Peter Solowka was sacked between the recording and release of the album, replaced by Paul Dorrington. For the 35th anniversary of Seamonsters release, The Wedding Present set about a North American Tour in 2026, with musicians Rachael Wood on guitar, Stuart Hastings on bass, and Chris Hardwick, on drums.
