A Rocktopia / Fireworks Magazine album review by Steven Reid: Things had begun to look up for The Wildhearts after 'P.H.U.Q.', with that album going straight into the top ten in the UK and a tour supporting AC/DC around Europe also being a huge success. However with the band's label East West continuing to upset the band at every move, most noticeably by releasing albums of material that were unsanctioned by the band, the chance to continue that tour across America was scuppered after only a few dates when Ginger and the boys finally got their wish and parted from their label. A new deal was quickly inked with Mushroom Records (outside East West's offices!) and the band set about recording a new album. That said, on a personal level, if the cracks had started to appear during the recording of 'P.H.U.Q.', then by the time that 1997's 'Endless Nameless' arrived they were gaping wounds. http://ping.fm/lki5B
