Pepper, and it just tears up everything else. The perfect fuck-you-I'm-stoned, heroin rock record.
Then again, it's the only Spiritualized album that really pushes the envelope universally. The rest of the Jason Pierce discography, Spacemen 3 included, is basically the same song played over and over again, with lyrics and backing instrumentation being the only real changing factor.
But that's one of the reasons why I love both bands.
