Urban Hymns is the third studio album by English rock band the Verve, released on 29 September 1997 on Hut Records. The group had broken up while promoting A Northern Soul in August 1995, though they reformed two weeks later without guitarist Nick McCabe. Frontman Richard Ashcroft moved to Bath, Somerset, where he made demos; Simon Tong joined the group soon afterwards. Following aborted recording sessions with producers John Leckie and Owen Morris, the band sought a new guitarist, contacting former Suede guitarist Bernard Butler, who played with them for a week before departing amidst creative differences. In 1996, The Verve started recording at Olympic Studios in London, first with producer Martin "Youth" Glover, followed by engineer Chris Potter. Ashcroft contacted McCabe in early 1997, inviting him back into the band, which McCabe accepted. Several songs were re-recorded to allow for the inclusion of McCabe's guitar parts, with sessions continuing into May 1997.

Shipping Policy

Please note that we are a physical record shop, and we need to separate the record from the sleeve for security reasons unless the record is new and sealed.

All our MINT new vinyl records are unplayed, but we cannot guarantee that they will be sealed. If you require sealed records, please get in touch before placing an order.

If you require a different shipping option not available at checkout, please contact us via email, phone, or the live chat service at the bottom right of the browser page and we will try to help.

We aim to process and post our orders within 2-3 working days. We do not post orders on weekends or bank holidays.
