I bought my first Artery record because I liked the look of it. And the title (One Afternoon in a Hot Air Balloon). And the fact that it was on Red Flame, which is usually a good sign. This makes me, I think, one of maybe 12 people in the world who heard Artery before I heard Pulp. So I've never quite been able to join in the chorus of adulation for Jarvis & Co. I like them a lot, but I can't help thinking of them as having ripped off Artery's sound a bit. That may not be entirely fair.
Anyway, if you like Pulp there's absolutely no reason you shouldn't like Artery. This is from their debut release, Oceans.
