“Beast Inside” by Inspiral Carpets

"Beast Inside" belongs to The Beast Inside, Inspiral Carpets' second studio album, which the British indie rock band put out on Mute Records on 22 April 1991. The writing credit goes to the band as a unit, Chris Nagle produced, Peter Schmidt engineered with Adrian Moore assisting, and John Pennington and Richard Scott mixed it.

The album around it made the UK Top 10 and divided the critics. The Rolling Stone Album Guide heard a leap forward; Trouser Press heard a band tinkering with its formula and coming up empty-handed. The Los Angeles Times singled out the beat-heavy rush, the vintage flavour and Clint Boon's swirling organ, and the Chicago Tribune, while finding few instant knockouts, allowed that the Carpets held on to their garage-rock energy as the soundscapes kept shifting.
