We Love Life — последний, седьмой альбом британской группы Pulp, вышедший в 2001 году. Достиг в британских чартах шестого места; находился в них в течение трёх недель. Продюсером альбома выступил Скотт Вокер, чей альбом «'Til the Band Comes In» был высмеян в песне «Bad Cover Version». Джарвис Кокер утверждает, что текст этой песни был написан задолго до того, как Вокер был привлечён к работе над альбомом.

His 'n' Hers is the fourth studio album by Pulp and is commonly cited as the band's breakthrough album, reaching number 9 in the UK charts.
It was nominated for the 1994 Mercury Music Prize, but lost out to Elegant Slumming by M People. In 1998, Q magazine readers voted it the 70th greatest album of all time, while the Virgin All-Time Top 1000 Albums placed it 110th.

Fear of a Black Planet is the third studio album by American hip hop group Public Enemy, released on April 10, 1990, by Def Jam Recordings and Columbia Records. It was produced by the group's production team The Bomb Squad, who sought to expand on the dense, sample-layered sound of Public Enemy's previous album, It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back (1988). Having fulfilled their initial creative ambitions with that album, Public Enemy pursued a different direction and aspired to create what lead MC Chuck D specified as "a deep, complex album". Their songwriting was partly inspired by the controversy with member Professor Griff and his dismissal from the group in 1989.

Decksandrumsandrockandroll is the only studio album by Propellerheads. It was originally released by Wall of Sound on 26 January 1998 in the United Kingdom. In the United States, it was released by DreamWorks Records with a different track listing.
The album peaked at number 6 on the UK Albums Chart, as well as number 100 on the Billboard 200 chart. It was nominated for the Mercury Music Prize in 1998. As of 1999, it has sold 200,000 copies.

Evel Knievel Factor is the second studio-album by the Finnish rock group Private Line. It was released in Finland on 1 November 2006. Two singles have been released from the album: "Broken Promised Land" on 31 May 2005, and "Sound Advice" on 28 January 2007. The b-side on the "Broken Promised Land" single is the album track "Uniform", while as b-sides to "Sound Advice" are two previously unreleased songs, "Tokyo" and "Criminal". The title is a reference to legendary American motorcycle daredevil Evel Knievel.

Une fille comme moi is the third album by French singer Priscilla Betti. It was released on February 2, 2004, and was supported by the French top five hit "Toujours pas d'amour", followed by the singles "Toi c'est moi" and "Jalousie" which achieved a moderate success in comparison. Une fille comme moi is Priscilla's most successful album, reaching the top ten in France.

Dirty Hits is the first greatest hits compilation album by British rock band Primal Scream. It was released in 2003. Early limited versions came in a card sleeve with a bonus disc of remixes; most had previously appeared as b-sides.

Protest Songs is the fourth album by English pop band Prefab Sprout (though the third recorded). It was recorded in 1985, but was not released until 1989; it's not clear whether, at the time of recording, the band had intended it as the main follow-up to their breakthrough album Steve McQueen, released earlier in 1985. The back cover of Protest Songs positions the album as a stage in their musical evolution, offering a middle ground between the sound and songwriting of Steve McQueen and that of From Langley Park to Memphis. The album's promotion was low-key and no singles were released from it at the time (though "Life of Surprises" was issued as a single three years later to promote the group's greatest hits album).

Planet P Project is a pseudonym used by American rock musician Tony Carey for his science-fiction themed, progressive rock/space rock music.

Wish You Were Here is the ninth studio album by the English rock band Pink Floyd. It was released on 12 September 1975 in the United Kingdom by Harvest Records and a day later in the United States by Columbia Records, their first American release for the label.
Based on material Pink Floyd composed while performing in Europe, Wish You Were Here was recorded over numerous sessions at Abbey Road Studios in London. Two songs criticise the music business, another expresses alienation and the multi-part composition "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" is a tribute to Pink Floyd founder Syd Barrett, who left seven years earlier due to his troubled mental health. As with their album The Dark Side of the Moon (1973), Floyd used studio effects, synthesizers and brought in guest singers, Roy Harper, who provided the lead vocals on "Have a Cigar" and Venetta Fields, who added backing vocals to "Shine On You Crazy Diamond".

Wish You Were Here затрагивает темы отчуждения, проблемы музыкальной индустрии и личность бывшего участника группы Сида Барретта, покинувшего коллектив из-за нестабильного психического состояния, вызванного употреблением наркотиков. Первые сессионные записи давались тяжело и проходили в напряжённом режиме, концепцию альбома предложил Роджер Уотерс, решив разделить главную композицию «Shine On You Crazy Diamond» на две части и добавить к ней ещё три новые песни. Заглавная песня явилась данью уважения к Барретту, который по иронии судьбы экспромтом посетил студию прямо во время записи. Визит оказался настолько неожиданным, а внешность музыканта так сильно изменилась, что участники группы не сразу признали в нём своего старого товарища.

Missundaztood (styled as M!ssundaztood) is the second studio album by American singer-songwriter Pink. The album was released worldwide in late 2001 to global commercial and critical success, critics welcoming the new pop-rock sound Pink presented on the record, after an urban-influenced debut.

Диск изначально был назван Long Way to Happy по одноимённой песне из альбома, но Pink изменила его на I’m Not Dead, считая, что это более точная формулировка для альбома, выпущенного после некоторого перерыва.

The Wall is the eleventh studio album by English rock band Pink Floyd. It was released as a double album on 30 November 1979 in the United Kingdom by Harvest Records and in the United States by Columbia Records. Bassist and songwriter Roger Waters conceived the album as a rock opera during Pink Floyd's 1977 In the Flesh Tour, when he became so frustrated with the audience that he spat on them. Its story explores Pink, a jaded rockstar character that Waters modeled after himself and the band's original leader Syd Barrett. Pink's life begins with the loss of his father during the Second World War and continues with abuse from his schoolteachers, an overprotective mother, and the breakdown of his marriage; all contribute to his eventual self-imposed isolation from society, symbolised by a wall. The band, who were then struggling with personal and financial difficulties, supported the idea.
