''Devil Hopping'' is the fourth studio album from British indie band Inspiral Carpets, released on 7 March 1994 via Mute Records. The single version of "I Want You" features vocals by Mark E. Smith of The Fall. Mute dropped the band after the release of ''Devil Hopping''. The title of the album came from producer Pascal Gabriel's pronunciation of the word "developing." Critical reception The ''Chicago Tribune'' wrote that "with driving guitars and Martyn Walsh's booming bass lines, ''Devil Hopping'' edges toward a punchier rock sound." ''Trouser Press'' wrote that "the nearly lifeless music is at best self-parodic; the lyrics are hopelessly trite." Track listing All tracks by Inspiral Carpets.

B-Sides And Udder Stuff
The A-side and B-side are the two sides of phonograph records and cassettes; these terms have often been printed on the labels of two-sided music recordings. The A-side usually features a recording that its artist, producer, or record company intends to be the initial focus of promotional efforts and radio airplay and hopefully become a hit record. The B-side (or "flip-side") is a secondary recording that typically receives less attention, although some B-sides have been as successful as, or more so than, their A-sides. Use of this language has largely declined in the 21st century as the music industry has transitioned away from analog recordings towards digital formats without physical sides, such as CDs, downloads and streaming. Nevertheless, some artists and labels continue to employ the terms ''A-side'' and ''B-side'' metaphorically to describe the type of content a particular release features, with ''B-side'' sometimes representing a "bonus" track or other material.
