"Different Class" is the fifth (yes, fifth) studio album by Pulp, released on March 30, 1995. It is widely regarded as one of the most significant albums of the Britpop era and played a crucial role in establishing Pulp as one of the biggest British acts of the mid-to-late 1990s. The album features a heady blend of pop, rock, and elements of electronic music, showcasing Pulp's eclectic sound.
Thematically, "Different Class" explores issues of class, social dynamics, and the British experience, often with a sharp, satirical edge. The lyrics, written by frontman Jarvis Cocker, are known for their sardonic wit and observational style. On this record are the band’s big breakout hits such as "Common People," which is Pulp's signature song alongside "Disco 2000," "Sorted for E's & Wizz," and "Something Changed."
"Different Class" received critical acclaim upon its release, went on to achieve commercial success and won the Mercury Music prize, reaching the top of the UK Albums Charts on its week of release and is often praised for its cultural impact and lyrical depth. The album helped solidify Pulp's place in music history and remains a touchstone for discussions about Britpop and 90s music.
On this episode we take it track by track & find a find an absolute gem as well as chat about Jarvis’s Jacko incident.
