Page "The Stone Roses" Paragraph 21

The Stone Roses finally released the album, Second Coming, on 5 December 1994.

Mostly written by John Squire, the music now had a shady, heavy blues-rock sound.

" Love Spreads " reached number two on the UK Singles Chart.

Second Coming received a mixed reception from the British press, which music journalist Simon Reynolds attributed to " the resentment that the Roses, divorced from the cultural moment that gave them meaning, were now just another band ".
