Released in 1989, CLOUDCUCKOOLAND marked by the solo debut of U.K. producer Ian Broudie under the Lightning Seeds moniker. Although Broudie was primarily known for his work on early Echo & the Bunnymen albums, the Lightning Seeds proved to be a far less edgy affair, as revealed on the airy, sensitive synth-pop singles "Pure" and "All I Want."
The Lightning Seeds are an English alternative rock and pop band from Liverpool, England formed by Ian Broudie (vocals, guitar, producer) in 1989. Originally a studio-based solo project for Broudie, The Lightning Seeds expanded into a touring band following Jollification (1994). The group experienced commercial success throughout the 1990s and are well-known for their single "Three Lions", a collaboration with David Baddiel and Frank Skinner which reached No. 1 in the UK in 1996 and 1998.
