Album Notes
Catherine Wheel: Rob Dickinson, Brian Futter (vocals, guitar, bass); Neil Sims (vocals, bass, drums, percussion, programming, loops).
Additional personnel includes: Tim Friese-Greene (conductor); Sara Lee (background vocals).
Producers: Tim Fries-Greene, Rob Dickinson.
In the days of FERMENT, CHROME, and HAPPY DAYS, Britain's Catherine Wheel rocked about as hard as any thrash band while retaining a basic melodiousness, a combination which made them darlings of the indie/college rock circuit. 1997's ADAM & EVE found the foursome toning down their guitars for a more brooding pop sound to excellent effect, after which label shake-ups left them virtually silent for three years.
WISHVILLE emerged amid rumors of break-up and turmoil. Here, Catherine Wheel start loud, while incorporating just the right subtle touch of electronics, before revealing their breathtaking soft side. Rob Dickinson's vocals remain as forceful as ever; the timbre of his voice on this release, particularly on the reflective "All Of That," evokes the best of Peter Gabriel's work. Catherine Wheel's sound, however it mutates, from fiery anthems like "Gasoline" to practically symphonic offerings such as "Idle Life," remains distinctive in this remarkably even, mature fifth studio album.

Editorial Reviews
3 stars out of 5 - ...Crammed with sturdy, radio-friendly 4-square rock anthems....Solid fare...
Q (09/01/2000)

3 stars out of 5 - ...They're tattered denim charm and soggy Bizkit guitars will tickle the reddest of necks...
Melody Maker (09/12/2000)

...[Their] sleek, modern-pop...plumbs notions of delusion, redemption, self-loathing and ambivalence....amounting to a brainy, brawny stare-down of the human condition....WISHVILLE is a gem that might catch some light.
