Echo & The Bunnymen
Production duties fell to Geoff Emerick, who pushed the group toward a lush and swirling sound. The heavy reliance on organ textures and sitars reflects an early nineties obsession with psychedelia.
This shift marks a contrast to the moody post-punk origins associated with the Liverpool scene. By recruiting Noel Burke on vocals, Will Sergeant and Les Pattinson steered the band in a completely new direction.
