Special Features

  • Play at Home: a channel 4 music documentary series. The band took directorial control and rather than focus on interviews, they created a variety of obscure scenes with all band members playing Alice inside Wonderland. Includes songs by the two side-projects active at that time: The Creatures and The Glove.
  • Promotional video for Dear Prudence, a standalone single released by the "Hyaena" lineup (included on the US version of that LP).
  • Old Grey Whistle Test performances of Melt! and Painted Bird.

Review

...serves as an excellent, no-nonsense introduction to the band's music for neophytes, while fans of the group will appreciate the tight, gutsy, stripped-down performances. - 5/5
