I beleive they were the first band ever to be on the cover of the NME before they even had a single out.

They were a bit overrated at the time but nowhere near as much as the likes of The Libertines , The Strokes or The Arctic Monkeys have been over the past few years. I just think it was genuine excitement that there was finally a British band making good British pop records amongst a sea of awful Grunge bands.
