Almost Here is the striking debut from Oxford trio Unbelievable Truth, released in 1998 on Virgin Records - this reissue faithfully replicates the original UK pressing with its partially exposed inner sleeve, and is pressed on 180g vinyl.Also available as a deluxe re-issue that adds an extra LP of B-Sides and is packaged in a bespoke gatefold sleeve, also pressed on 180g vinyl. Formed by vocalist and guitarist Andy Yorke, bassist Jason Moulster and drummer Nigel Powell, the band crafted an album that stood apart from the late-Britpop rush with a sound that was intimate, melodic and emotionally direct. Critically noted for its cohesion and lyrical sincerity, Almost Here established Unbelievable Truth as a thoughtful counterpoint to the era's louder guitar bands. It remains a focused, atmospheric debut that rewards close listening and highlights a band confident in mood, melody and craft.
