"Slap!" is the fourth studio album by the English band Chumbawamba, released in 1990. Known for their eclectic style blending elements of punk, pop, folk, and electronic music, Chumbawamba gained commercial success with their later album "Tubthumping," but "Slap!" showcases their earlier, more politically charged sound.
The album features tracks such as "Rich Pop Stars," "Commercial Break," and "Unilever," which are characterized by their catchy melodies, sharp lyrics, and energetic performances. Lyrically, "Slap!" addresses various social and political issues, reflecting the band's anarchist and anti-capitalist beliefs.
While "Slap!" did not achieve mainstream success, it received positive reviews from critics and remains a favorite among fans of Chumbawamba's early work. The album exemplifies the band's commitment to using music as a platform for activism and social commentary, cementing their reputation as one of the most unique and influential acts in the alternative music scene of the 1990s.
