About this album

Porcupine is a stark, forceful statement from Echo & The Bunnymen, sharpening their post-punk pulse into one of the defining British rock albums of 1983. Produced by Ian Broudie and the band with Alex Murray, it leans into taut rhythms, ominous guitar lines and Ian McCulloch’s dramatic vocal style, while songs such as The Cutter and Back Of Love gave the group some of their biggest and most enduring singles. The album helped cement their reputation beyond the indie circuit, reaching the UK Top 10 and showing how expansive, moody rock could still carry real pop force. It remains a key release in their catalogue.

Genre: Pop & Rock
