Pulp

Pulp's live performance at Finsbury Park on July 25, 1998, occurred during a pivotal period in the band's career, following the release of their acclaimed album "This Is Hardcore" in 1998. This album showcased a darker and more introspective tone compared to their earlier works, solidifying the band's place in the Britpop movement and reflecting their evolution from a cult band to a mainstream success. The Finsbury Park concert is notable not only for featuring tracks from "This Is Hardcore" but also hits from their previous albums, exhibiting their diverse sound and the connection they maintained with fans. Pulp's charismatic frontman, Jarvis Cocker, became famous for his engaging stage presence, and this concert drew a massive crowd, underlining the band's popularity at the time. The show was part of their extensive touring schedule during which they solidified their reputation as one of the defining bands of the 90s British alternative scene.
