BackgroundWith the increasing popularity of bands such as The Chemical Brothers and The Prodigy, the band was encouraged by their new label to move towards a heavier sound. The outcome was a marked change in direction which, whilst retaining some of the pop rock sensibilities of earlier recordings, saw the songs drenched in extreme levels of distortion. The effect was to create an album which divided opinion amongst even the most devoted of Wildhearts fans. Continuing an uninterrupted run of top 40 singles that had started with "Caffeine Bomb" back in 1994, both singles from the album - "Urge" and "Anthem" - entered the top 30. The album, however, stalled at No. 41. Within months, the band would be on 'hiatus', following internal tensions, making this the last official album that the band would release until "The Wildhearts Must Be Destroyed" in 2003. "Heroin" is a cover of "Heroine" by The Dogs D'Amour. The Japanese version of the album featured a cover of the Elvis Costello song "Pump It Up". This was initially issued as an anonymous promo to DJs prior to the release of the album. DJ's were invited to guess who the band was on the return form. Around half guessed right, although one unnamed DJ ended up bizarrely thinking it was the work of former Beatle Paul McCartney. Other promotional CDs for the release of Endless Nameless caused controversy by depicting animals being hung as well as shot. Some sources say the album was named after Nirvana's 1991 song "Endless, Nameless", the hidden track at the end of their Nevermind album, though Ginger claims to have been unaware of the song's title at the time.[1] The sonic booms heard in various tracks on the album were reused by former band member Devin Townsend multiple times on his album Infinity, such as the track "War" ending with the boom that ends Endless Nameless.
