Originally released on March 22, 1994, Devil Hopping is the fourth and final studio album from the Inspiral Carpets' initial run. Arriving at the height of the transition from Madchester to Britpop, the record saw the band leaning into a bigger, punchier sound while retaining their signature "Cool as Fuck" garage-organ DNA. Peaking at #10 on the UK Album Charts, it serves as a triumphant capstone to a prolific decade on Cow Records (via Mute). This 30th Anniversary reissue brings the album back to vinyl for the first time since its original mid-90s release. Meticulously remastered, the record captures the band's most polished and powerful performances, including the stratospheric anthem "Saturn 5" and the gritty, soulful collaboration with Mark E. Smith on "I Want You." Housed in a deluxe sleeve with restored artwork, this edition is the definitive celebration of the Carpets' enduring legacy.
