Northern Uproar

Limited clear vinyl LP pressing. Formed in Stockport in 1995, Northern Uproar were receiving critical acclaim from NME and Melody Maker even before signing their first recording contract. The group were fronted by vocalist / bassist Leon Maya and known for their blend of Oasis-like cockiness and the punk sensibilities of the Manic Street Preachers. Released on Heavenly in 1996, Northern Uproar was the band's debut album and features the singles 'Rollercoaster', 'From A Window', 'Livin' It Up'. Produced by James Dean Bradfield and Dave Eringa, the album reached #22 in the UK album charts.
