Slain by Urusei Yatsura
The second album, with "Hello Tiger" and "Slain by Elf".
Urusei Yatsura, 1998
The label and producer are in conflict: the Wikipedia album page lists Sire Records and Chris Allison, while the band page and the New Vinyl Villain name Che, and the Quietus notes Che's link to Sire's Seymour Stein. Ian Graham used the same drum kit for We Are and throughout this record, per PopMatters. AllMusic gave it 4.5 of 5. David Mouriquand wrote in Euronews in 2023 that it is not flawless, nor a misunderstood work of postmodern genius. A Japanese version is on the band's Bandcamp.
