What the label says:

Having departed the independent world and signed with A & M in 1991, CUD proceeded to pursue the commercial success their previous releases had hinted at with 1992’s “Asquarius”. Following this, their first “hit” album, proved to be the band’s longest break between releases (largely the result of some inter-label disharmony), but they eventually emerged in 1994 with “Showbiz”. Recorded primarily in Scotland (at a studio owned by Fish of Marillion fame, no less), this record saw their sound mature and showcased a broader range of songwriting styles than previous efforts. It was well received on its release in April 1994, garnering favourable reviews, and spawned two UK hit singles in “Neurotica” and “One Giant Love”. Sadly, though, the album proved to be the band’s last officially released effort as the pressures of life on a major and all that it entails took their toll on the band.

This remastered version also includes a number of B-Sides from the album’s single releases, as well as some unreleased out-takes and demo versions, including material intended for their next album, which hasn’t seen the light of day before now.
