Vehicles & Animals' is the debut album from UK based rock band Athlete. Hailing from south London, the band achieved chart success with the singles 'You Got The Style' and 'Beautiful' with the album going on to platinum success as well as being nominated for the Mercury Music Prize in 2003. An eclectic mix of quirky electronica and unashamed pop, it is guilelessly cheery and knowingly witty in equal measure. It is rife with an irresistible charm, sly English wit, and supremely catchy choruses. Originally only available as a limited 1LP, (much sought after now) this release marks its exact 20th anniversary with this expanded 2LP on 180g blue vinyl in a gatefold sleeve. This newly remastered version also features all the B-sides from the debut album's singles.
