They were indie darlings until 1997 when they were welcomed into the mainstream. They are most probably best well known for The Drugs Don't Work, Bitter Sweet Symphony (got to no. 2) and Lucky Man. They split in 1999 for 8 years, when Mr Ashcroft went solo, and the one and only album they have released since reforming achieved no. 1 status. Love Is Noise was a really good single from the album and actually reached no. 4 in the UK chart. I think they could have gone onto better things had they not split.
