Pride

About

Though <i>Pride</i> is largely considered a greatest-hits collection, it’s also of major importance to fans for the inclusion of three previously unreleased tracks that were recorded for the follow-up to Living Colour's third album, <i>Stain</i>. (A fourth song, “Visions,” originally appeared on the <i>True Lies</i> soundtrack.) All Living Colour anthologies include “Cult of Personality,” “Open Letter (To a Landlord),” “Glamour Boys,” and “Funny Vibe” from their excellent debut, <i>Vivid</i>. “Pride,” “Solace of You,” “Type," and “Time’s Up”—from their second album, the equally devastating <i>Time’s Up</i>—often follow. This collection adds the powerful <i>Biscuits EP</i> live version of the Talking Heads cover “Memories Can’t Wait” and the "Soulpower Remix" of “Love Rears Its Ugly Head,” alongside underrated tracks such as “WTFF” and “Nothingness” from <i>Stain</i>. Of the previously unreleased material, “Release the Pressure” and “Sacred Ground” stick to a harder and heavier approach, while “These Are Happy Times” works from the band’s soulful side.
