Recorded in 1995, Supermodels broke the long hiatus since Cringe (1991). Having lost drummer Nicholas "Ogs" Loizides, the group had done some tours with Steve Wren sitting in on the traps. But without a recording label and management, the group was rather directionless and bereft of new material. This changed in 1994 with the great new songs collected here, written mostly by guitarist Derek "Del Boy" Greening. With the band having picked up new management, the demos of this material got We Bite Records interested.
