Get this one last." Reply

"Super underrated album, especially on this site. I didn't really hear anyone making this type of music when this came out in 2001. The closest would probably be Rival Schools. I guess it would be considered post punk. It sounds more modern now than it did when it was released. If you haven't hear..." [+] Reply
"'Waking Hours' is what many consider to be Del Amitri's true debut album. Released four years after their post-punk debut, 'Waking Hours' introduced the very Wallflowers-like alternative sound the band is famous for, as well as some of Del Amitri's most well-known singles.
