His 'n' Hers
by Pulp
The 535th greatest album of all time
His 'n' Hers (1994) finds Pulp blending Britpop, glam and new wave influences with alternative and indie rock textures. Jarvis Cocker's conversational, observational lyrics about domestic life, desire and social awkwardness sit alongside melodic, often theatrical arrangements that employ piano, synths, strings and sharp guitar hooks. The record's mix of everyday detail and pop craft helped establish Pulp's public profile and set the stage for their later prominence within 1990s British guitar pop.
