This was the time of Material Issue, Teenage Fanclub, The Charlatans, and Sugar—when everyone was waiting to see if The Stone Roses would ever make another record. .. before grunge took over. Drawing once again from these early sources of inspiration, Lunar Phase was created with that wonderful time in mind.
