Longpigs - On And On (The Anthology) (2013)

Two CD collection from the British Alt-Rock band. Longpigs - on And On: The Anthology includes all the band's singles (five Top 40 hits amongst them), key tracks from their two albums, the Sun Is Often Out and Mobile Home, major b-sides, and five previously unreleased tracks. Contains 32 tracks charting almost the full recording career of one of the coolest bands to ever call Sheffield, Steel City home. Crispin Hunt, Richard Hawley, Simon Stafford and Dee Boyle formed Longpigs in 1993 from the ashes and ranks of several Sheffield bands, including the Happening Men, the Lovebirds and Cabaret Voltaire. Never a band to deliberately court commerciality, Longpigs were a band to inspire and well over a decade later you can still tune that radio dial and hear their songs sounding as fresh and innovative as the day they were crafted.
