The verve gravity grave edit


Verve is the first studio release by English rock band Verve, released in December 1992 on Vernon Yard Recordings in the United States and Hut Records in the United Kingdom. It features songs that never appeared on another studio release by The Verve. The two singles from the EP would reappear on the B-side compilation No Come Down ("Gravity Grave") and the singles compilation This Is Music: The Singles 92–98 ("Gravity Grave" and "She's a Superstar").

The EP captures the Verve's early style of experimental psychedelic rock.

The cover was shot in Richard Ashcroft's flat in Wigan. The person on the cover is Richard Ashcroft's then-girlfriend Sarah Carpenter.
