简介:Our Favourite Shop is the second album from the band The Style Council. The majority of the album´s material was released (with different sequencing and packaged in an entirely different cover design) in the USA as Internationalists by Geffen Records.Lyrical targets include racism, excessive consumerism, the effects of self-serving governments, the suicide of one of Weller´s friends and what the band saw as an exasperating lack of opposition to the status quo. All of this pessimism is countered with an overarching sense of hope and delight that alternatives do actually exist,if only they can be seen. The album contained the Top 10 singles "Shout To The Top", which reached NO.7 in the UK, and "Walls Come Tumbling Down!", which reached NO.6 in the UK.The contained musical styles are also far-ranging. Soul, rap, jazz and rock stylings all occur on the album.
