It is considered their breakthrough album, largely owing to the song "Bohemian Like You" being featured in a notable Vodafone advertisement.[3] Four singles were released from the album: "Get Off", "Bohemian Like You", "Godless" and "Horse Pills" (the last in Australia only). This is the band's first album to feature their new drummer Brent DeBoer, Taylor-Taylor's cousin, who joined the band following the departure of their original drummer Eric Hedford, during the tour of their previous studio album. Background and recordingRecording of the album commenced in December 1998 and concluded in March 1999.[4] On the making of the album, frontman Courtney Taylor-Taylor said that "we felt like we needed to make the last classic rock album. A record that would be, sonically, shaped somewhere in-between All Things Must Pass and Workingman's Dead."[5] ReleaseThe album's first single, "Get Off", was released in May 2000. Thirteen Tales from Urban Bohemia was released in June 2000 by record label Capitol. It is considered their breakthrough album due to the success of the album's second single "Bohemian Like You", released in August, which reached number 5 in the UK,[6] |
