Belly

Though Rhode Island alternative rockers Belly made a bigger splash with their debut, the quartet’s follow-up is equally worthy. “KING was a reaction to the bright shininess of STAR and we weren't surprised when it didn't sell,” recalled group founder Tanya Donelly of the 1995 Sire set, which boasts a more muscular, electric sound thanks partly to new bassist Gail Greenwood, who had previously played guitar in a metal band. But Donelly and company’s knack for hook-filled songwriting didn’t change with the stronger rock and roll emphasis, judging from such highlights as “Super-Connected,” “Now They'll Sleep” and “Seal My Fate.” Noted producer Glyn Johns (Eagles, Faces, The Who) helmed the underrated KING, which remains catchy and compelling decades later.
