Notes
The debut single by Coldplay, "Brothers & Sisters" was released by Fierce Panda in April 1999.
"Brothers & Sisters" was the result of a short-lived deal between Coldplay and Fierce Panda Records. After seeing them perform at the Camden Falcon in December 1998, shortly after they had formed. The label offered to release the band's debut single, to which they agreed. It was the only release by Coldplay under Fierce Panda. It would be the second time that Fierce Panda would release a debut single from a band that would move on to achieve great success, losing Embrace the year before to Hut Records after releasing their debut single "All You Good Good People".
The single was recorded at Station Studios in February 1999, taking only four days to complete and cost the band only £400.
Usually featuring two tracks, "Brothers & Sisters" and "Easy to Please", with some singles featuring a third track, "Only Superstition", the single managed to sneak into the UK Singles Chart, peaking at #107.

Been waiting so long for a version that contains all three songs released together. Also really enjoyed Simon Williams' excerpt on side D. "Word from the corridors of UCL was that singer Chris Martin was an utter utter utter pain in the ass" was very amusing.

Great album but does anyone else notice some hiss on low volume? Probably the recording itself was not post processed since it was done cheaply for £400 -
referencing Brothers & Sisters (CDr, EP, Reissue) none
Btw, if any wants this cd version, amazon still has it on production, just look for the cd in amazon and you will find the black and light blue cover. Since it is part from their On Demand service, it will take a couple of days for amazon to make it and ship it to you.
