The Weight Reaches 2000!!!


At some point, I'm going to stop posting about the milestones that we reach on this site. But for now, they continue to excite me. As a result of our reporting live from inside SOB's for Phil Lesh and Friends two night stand in New York City last week, amongst other things, we have climbed to 2,000 unique visitors to this site since inception less than three months ago. Thank you to everyone who has helped us achieve this and we hope you keep coming back for more. To celebrate another milestone, let's all meet up at Disco 2000. I'll see you there...

Different Class is a 1995 album by Pulp. It was released at the height of Britpop, and led to the band being regarded as a part of that movement. Two of the singles on the album – "Common People" (which reached number 2 in the UK singles chart) and "Disco 2000" (which reached number 7) – were especially notable, and helped propel Pulp to UK-wide fame.

The album was the winner of the 1996 Mercury Music Prize. In 1998 Q magazine readers voted Different Class the 37th greatest album of all time; a repeat poll in 2006 saw it reach number 85. In 2000 the same magazine placed it at number 46 in its list of the 100 Greatest British Albums Ever. In 2004 it was voted number 70 of Channel 4's 100 greatest albums.
