Thirteen

Teenage Fanclub

Dense, fuzzy power pop that trades sun-drenched optimism for a heavier, more melancholic Scottish autumn. A thick wall of guitars meets fragile three-part harmonies.

October 4, 1993 · DGC

A heavy, autumnal weariness balanced by the warmth of perfectly blended vocal harmonies.

Moments Worth Listening For
The massive, fuzzy guitar riff that opens The Cabbage, signaling a heavier shift from their previous work.
The sprawling, psychedelic outro of Gene Clark that stretches into a hypnotic six-minute tribute.
The sudden, bright burst of classic power pop sunshine during the chorus of Norman 3.
